Praise for "Icons"
"Fans of Stohl's "Beautiful Creatures" series will find many of the same elements here -- paranormal romance, a fast pace, and intriguing characters -- but within a distinctly science-fiction setting. The strong messages of questioning authority, daring to resist injustice, and loyalty to one's group will resonate with teens who loved "The Hunger Games."" ""Booklist"""
