“An ambitious novel which should impress epic fantasy enthusiasts thoroughly ... an excellent read perfectly suited for middle grade audiences. Recommended.” (CM Magazine)
“A fast-moving, sometimes heartbreaking adventure with enough vicious creatures and action to keep readers entertained, while imparting a subtle message that no one should be judged without having a chance to prove him- or herself.” (Quill and Quire)
“An intriguing story ... McIsaac has a knack for creating multi-dimensional characters; Urgle in particular is well drawn. The action is fast-paced and will keep readers engaged.” (National Reading Campaign 2017-06-21)
