"Megan Whalen Turner proves to be one of the brightest creative talents. With each book, she continues to add new levels and new lustre to her sparkling imagination." -- Lloyd Alexander "Turner's storytelling is so sure that readers will want to go along with her-and discover whatever it is that Eugenides will do next." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review) "The intense read is thoroughly involving and wholly satisfying on all fronts." -- The Horn Book (starred review) "Readers will be spellbound." -- Kirkus Reviews (starred review) "A plot twist sets the obvious on its head and leads to an unexpected conclusion. Scheming, spying, thieving, and fighting fill the pages of this cleverly plotted, enjoyable tale. -- Book "This rich, layered tale is immensely satisfying. A story to savor, one of those books a reader will race through to find out what happens, at the same time never wanting it to end." -- Voice of Youth Advocates (VOYA)
