"This is how fantasy should be done."--Publishers Weekly, starred review "Rich details illuminate every dimension of an extravagant city flooded with magic, and intriguing personalities evolve into complex characters...between [the characters those] the vivid setting, and the climactic cliffhanger, Schwab already has us anticipating the rest of the series."--Entertainment Weekly, Grade A on A Gathering of Shadows "Feels like a priceless object, brought from another, better world of fantasy books.
