Review

“The third and final entry in the series that began with Wondrous Strange (2008), this ends the story just right. ... The romance! And the battles! And all the Shakespeare! It’s enjoyable [and] well-plotted.” (Kirkus Reviews)

“Livingston brings this trilogy to a strong and satisfying conclusion, and readers will enjoy every minute, while wishing it did not have to end.” (School Library Journal)

“Livingston’s artistry at creating imaginary worlds that exist side by side with contemporary New York remains strong...fans of the first two entries will gulp this one down with gusto.” (Booklist)
