What They're Saying
Critics Review
“Spell-binding in every way… an anthology like no other!” —The Nerd Daily
★ “Eighteen heroes, individual yet not alone, beautifully find self-respect and force their school to change.” —Kirkus Reviews, starred review
“Readers who’ve been burned by less culturally sensitive wizard schools will rejoice… The range of racial, ethnic, gendered, variously abled, and neurodiverse identities in a magic school setting is vastly appealing, and meditations on ‘chosen one’ clichés and sly meta-commentary make this especially enjoyable for genre-savvy readers.“—The Bulletin
”[A] magical mystery.” —Publishers Weekly
“Highly recommended for readers who love genre blending, magic with morals, and a good whodunit.” —Booklist
“Exceptionally diverse and delightfully funny.” —School Library Journal
“A resonant message of hope for a better future, magical or otherwise.” —BookPage
