About this title

Review

First in a series, this is a rich and satisfying read.
--Kirkus Reviews
The action is swift, the fantasy world nicely defined, and the ending will leave readers wanting more. With a multicultural cast and enough gender role-reversal to make a lot of people happy, this is a promising first title in a series.
--Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books
[T]his is an enjoyable fantasy for middle-grade readers, who will look forward to the next book in the series.
--School Library Journal
Pierce has created an excellent new world where magic is a science...and populated it with a cast of well-realized characters. Teens will eagerly await the planned sequels.
