Critics Review

Mesmerizing fantasy … Told with great warmth and insight, ADVENT is an epic tale that will linger in your mind long after you turn the last page. - Deborah Harkness, author of A Discovery of Witches

An interesting and original tale, bringing a fresh outlook to old stories … clever twists keep you hooked - SFX on ADVENT

This epic debut tale wowed us with the concept of ancient magic returning to the modern world 500 years after its disappearance … The first in a trilogy, it’s ambitious and echoes Philip Pullman. - Stylist on ADVENT

James’s style draws you in … it’s alive with vile creatures, sweeping mysteries and the best-written female characters in young adult fiction. A unique voice - ImagineFX
