When Gearhead arrives in Ponyville, he brings many questions with him, like 'what is the nature of his 'knack?'' What is his purpose behind setting up shop next to the Everfree Forest? While Pinkie Pie wants nothing more than to befriend the new arrival, Twilight and the others are more skeptical, and decide to investigate.

This story runs parallel to season 1 of Friendship is Magic, weaving in and out of events viewers will recognize. The completed Book 1 is now available for your reading pleasure.
