About this series
No one knows the hero business like Hawk and Fisher. That’s why they started the Hawk and Fisher Memorial Academy—to share their skills with the next generation of heroes. Decades later, their Hero Academy is the Dutchy of Lancre’s most profitable tourist attraction, its greatest pride, and now…its biggest problem.
During auditions for the next class of students, an assassin ambushes Hawk and Fisher, setting off a powerful chain of events that could destroy the Forest Kingdom. For the Blue Moon rises once more, and with it, a familiar and formidable foe that Hawk and Fisher thought they’d never see again—the Demon Prince.
Now, Hawk and Fisher must embark on one final quest. Joining forces with their children, they’ll reunite with old friends, visit legendary lands, and battle infamous villains to stop the Demon Prince once and for all. Hanging in the balance is the future of their bloodline, the kingdom, and the world.
Once in a Blue Moon is the compelling conclusion to New York Times bestselling author Simon R. Green’s beloved The Forest Kingdom series.

Quests are overrated All his life, Prince Rupert thrilled in the glorious exploits of his royal ancestors. Finally embarking on his own heroic journey, Rupert realizes there’s a lot the minstrels leave out of their songs. On the hunt for a mythical dragon, besieged by demons, and navigating the cursed Darkwood with a smart-mouthed unicorn, Rupert is becoming somewhat disenchanted with legends. But even if he succeeds, peril awaits, because the king never intended for his spare heir to return from this fool’s errand. Now, with the help of a few unusual allies, Rupert must make up the story as he goes--outmaneuvering assassins, thwarting the voracious spread of the Darkwood, and grappling with rumors of a powerful evil’s return. Rupert may not be the hero Forest Kingdom wanted, but at this rate, he’s the only one they’re going to get. New York Times bestselling author Simon R. Green’s trademark wit and genre-twisting narrative sparkles in Blue Moon Rising, the first book of The Forest Kingdom series.
- Down Among the Dead Men
3
“Ten years have passed since the Demon War. The Forest's scars are slowly healing, the Darkwood is still and silent, and few demons ever venture out of the endless night. But in a clearing not far from the Darkwood boundary, in a darkness where a sun has never risen and a moon has never shone, an ancient evil stirs in its sleep and dreams foul dreams." And with those words, New York Times bestselling author Simon R. Green begins the third of his Forest Kingdom novels, a classic sword-and-sorcery quest of four Rangers, three outlaws, and one Infernal Device that could reawaken a Beast that's best left sleeping. Travel along with Duncan MacNeil, the witch Constance, Jessica Flint and Giles Dancer as they -- and their buried secrets -- go down among the dead men on the adventure of a lifetime.
- Blood and Honor
2
It’s seven years after the end of the Demon War. Rupert and Julia are becoming legends, their story one for performers to tell. Performers like Jordan, who was in debtors prison a year ago and is now to be cast in the role of a lifetime. Magicked to look like Prince Viktor, the middle child of the recently deceased -- and likely poisoned -- King Malcolm, his stage the halls of Castle Midnight, Jordan will be playing at politics instead of theater. While Jordan is in the middle of a struggle for succession with Viktor’s two brothers, all three are pawns in a much bigger war. The forces of Real and Unreal see an opening in the battle for Malcolm’s throne, and the very corridors of Castle Midnight become a constantly changing landscape for a new battle that could again tear the Forest Kingdom asunder. This is the second Forest Kingdom novel from New York Times bestselling author Simon R. Green, and a worthy successor to his long-popular Blue Moon Rising.
- Beyond the Blue Moon

It has been many years since the long night of the Blue Moon. King Harald is dead, and chaos reigns in the Forest Kingdom. The long-lost heroes of Blue Moon Rising must return in order to save the nation of their birth--and it might already be too late. Favorite characters return, and a stunning revelation about the true identities of two Haven cops (whom readers will recognize from Green's popular Hawk & Fisher series) awaits. At long last, revisit the world of the Blue Moon. A continuation of several of New York Times-bestselling author Simon R. Green's most beloved series, Beyond The Blue Moon was chosen as one of the year's best books by Science Fiction Chronicle, who wrote "If they’re making fantasy adventure much better than this, I don’t know about it." Locus lauded it as "an engrossing adventure", and Library Journal declared that "this fast-moving, wise-cracking sequel to Blue Moon Rising belongs in most fantasy collections."
