Editorial Reviews

"The characters are fully developed and the dialogue witty and full of spunk. With the pace and thrill of the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series, a sense of place worthy of Narnia itself, and Conor’s dryly humorous first-person narration, this novel is a fast read that will engage reluctant readers." —Booklist on Shadowmagic

"A fun tale for readers who are looking for another light fantasy." —School Library Journal on Shadowmagic

"If Percy Jackson were to be hurled across dimensions into Middle Earth, you might hope to see a story like this one evolve." —Mark Robson, author of the Dragon Orb and Imperial Spy books on the Shadowmagic series
