Durst imbues a thrill-filled story about monster racing with impressive thematic depth and a refreshing spectrum of female characters [...] Durst consistently defies expectations in both plot and characterization while exploring sophisticated themes of found family, integrity, and morality. This excellent epic fantasy will appeal to adult fans of Tamora Pierce and Megan Whalen Turner. -- Publishers Weekly <strong>(starred review)</strong>
