Background: Courtney is at it again, only this time her uncle won't be around to help her. Courtney and her Uncle are on the outs and her powers have only continued to grow. She is now attending weekend school with other witches and warlocks of her age to learn the history of her heritage. When something goes terribly wrong she must lead the group of students to Goblin Town and hope for the best. To make matters worse she is being chased by a deranged lawmen who only wants to lock her up for her 'crimes'.

Review: Volume Three the Twilight Kingdom was wonderful. Courtney develops as a character with knowledge of her past and friendship and the plot was fascinating. The magical world of Goblin Town and the Twilight Kingdom is beautifully conceived and the anti-Disney world. With magical creatures both evil and nice or strangely in between, the reader stays amused by their actions. I really enjoy reading and viewing this series of Graphic Novels, it is one of my favorite sets. Courtney is stoic and interesting.

The end of the novel even has the color covers from series.
