* This textured, richly mythological story will keep the pages turning as readers are drawn into Serwa's world. A superb, action-packed series starter. -Kirkus Reviews (starred review) * Via Serwa's savvy narration, Brown melds Ghanian folklore, smart action, thoughtful commentary about liminal spaces, and a healthy dose of tween hijinks, making for an exhilarating introduction to Serwa Boateng's magic-filled world. -Publishers Weekly (starred review) * Brown's middle-grade debut is an action-packed, Ghanaian-influenced contemporary fantasy that explores the bonds of family, friendship, and what happens when you don't know (or are kept from) your own history. -Booklist (starred review) Rosie writes her characters with such lyrical power, wit, and empathy that you can't help falling in love with Serwa Boateng, her family, and her friends. -Rick Riordan, New York Times best-selling author of the Percy Jackson series
