Game of Thrones-style." * New York Times * "The first in a gripping new trilogy that will appeal to fans of The Hunger Games in particular. We love it." * Lovereading * "A blooming romance...makes for a heady ferocious page-turner." * The School Librarian * "Sweeps the reader up in a page-turning tale of clashing factions, dangerous ambitions and simmering romance... An original and sophisticated beginning to a worthy new YA series." * Books for Keeps * "Gripping . . .
