"...Fans will be delighted and begging for the next title-and the cliff-hanger ending promises us there will be one." -Booklist on The Iron Flower"An amazing second installment to the series... I highly recommend this book." -YA Books Central on The Iron Flower"I absolutely loved The Black Witch and will have a very hard time waiting for the second book! Maximum suspense, unusual magic-a whole new, thrilling approach to fantasy!" -Tamora Pierce, #1 New York Times bestselling author"The Black Witch is a refreshing, powerful young adult fantasy. This strong debut offers an uncompromising glimpse of world-altering politics amplified by a magical setting in which prejudice and discrimination cut both ways." -Robin Hobb, New York Times bestselling author"This briskly paced, tightly plotted novel enacts the transformative power of education, creating engaging characters set in a rich alternative universe with a complicated history that can help us better understand our own. A massive page-turner that leaves readers longing for more." -Kirkus Reviews on The Black Witch, starred review"Forest uses a richly-imagined magical world to offer an uncompromising condemnation of prejudice and injustice...With strong feminist messages, lively secondary characters, and an especially nasty rival (imagine a female Draco Malfoy), fans of Harry Potter and Tamora Pierce will gobble down the 600-plus pages and demand the sequel." -Booklist on The Black Witch, starred review"Exquisite character work, an elaborate mythology, and a spectacularly rendered universe make this a noteworthy debut, which argues passionately against fascism and xenophobia...the thrilling conclusion will leave readers eager for the next book in this series." -Publishers Weekly on The Black Witch, starred review
