The Everafter War is Book 7 of The Sisters Grimm series written by Michael Buckley. It was published in 2009.

Goldilocks kisses Henry Grimm, Sabrina and Daphne's father, awakening him from his sleeping spell, but seems to not have worked. Meanwhile, Daphne and Sabrina have been taken by Ms. Smirt, a cruel woman who works in foster care. Luckily, Daphne had made a plan before hand. Puck flies in scaring Ms. Smirt and the entire train. Henry and Veronica (who had waken up by this point), along with the gang, save the girls from Smirt. Henry has a hard time realizing that his daughters have grown up. He is very uncomfortable with their familiarity with magic, remembering how it got his father killed. He decides to disconnect Sabrina and Daphne from Ferryport Landing, forcing them to pack and get ready to return to New York City.

Before they can leave, though, the Scarlet Hand surrounds the house and shoots Uncle Jake in the shoulder. Knowing he needs medical care, Granny sends everyone into the Hall of Wonders, to the Room of Reflections, which contains a number of magic mirrors. They enter what turns out to be a rebel fort, headed by Charming, to fight the Scarlet Hand. Henry still refuses to stay, so he forces Daphne, Sabrina and Veronica to pack up and leave the fort. Sadly, they are cornered by a group of trolls working for the Hand. The trolls attack but Henry and Veronica fight amazingly while the girls watch in awe. After defeating 12 out of the 14, the family is forced to return to Camp Charming. Uncle Jake asks the girls' help in rescuing his love, Briar Rose (Sleeping Beauty), whom he'd bought an engagement ring for. After Uncle Jake is knocked out and Daphne accidentally turns Sabrina into a goose, Briar is rescued, but dragons are sent after the group and Briar dies in the fighting. Sabrina accidentally reveals to Puck that they get married in the future, they get in a big fight.

Realizing it is time to take a side, the Grimm family, with the exception of Henry, agrees to let Charming's army use various magical weapons in the Hall of Wonders. Nevertheless, the army suffers a grim defeat due to a spy in the camp. Charming sets a trap and discovers Pinocchio is the spy; he was promised he could grow up and become a man.
