What They're Saying
Critics Review
“Fun, futuristic, and fast-paced . . . a truly imaginative adventure. . . . [The] narrative effectively shines a light on systemic injustice and showcases the strength of women of color in ways that will resonate with readers. A creative work of heart and heroism that’s likely to inspire young audiences.” —Kirkus Reviews
“Readers will find Queen of Babylon refreshingly original, unpredictable, and unique in its dystopian portrait of a bleak future in which machine minds meld with the human psyche. . . . Gibson and Josey inject just the right blend of intrigue, hard science, and social and ethical examination into their story. . . . completely enthralling.” —Midwest Book Review
