Product Details

Praise

“In this delightful companion novel to The Grimm Legacy and The Wells Bequest, Shulman blends modern fantasy, humor, and adventure, with a touch of romance . . . and a fantastical hunt for a pirate’s treasure that takes them bounding across the high seas. . . . Extra credit to author Shulman for deftly weaving a wealth of literary references into the story. Lots of fun, particularly for those who enjoyed the previous books. Suggest this title as a refreshing change from dystopian drama, and to young teens who miss Harry Potter.”School Library Journal

“Interweaves past and present as well as fact and fiction. Fans of the previous books will enjoy the reappearance of familiar characters in secondary roles, while new readers will be able to pick up fundamentals of the story’s magical premise and enjoy Sukie’s adventure.”Booklist

“Sukie’s pragmatism and unflappability is amusing as she encounters one extraordinary situation after another. . . . The New-York Circulating Material Repository is a character unto itself, with meandering paths and random annexes containing materials and objects from great works of literature. . . . Whether read as a companion to the first book or a standalone, this is a fine outing in supernatural shenanigans, haunted family histories, and reclaimed futures.”The Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books

“The possibility that Sukie’s family might have been the focus of some classic literary novels is a unique concept. Filled with ghosts, flying brooms, magic carpets, and hidden treasures, the author provides the reader with a page-turner. The characters are well-developed and fascinating. . . . Readers will be intrigued with the inclusion of classic literary characters.”School Library Connection
