Table of ContentsReviews"* “Dantessa’s Venetian-inspired world of canals and palazzos is intricately built, lush with sensory detail, and a vividly imagined magical gaming culture. Pia is a resilient, brave, and empathetic character. . . . Both the lead and supporting characters are distinct and intriguing, and the action is expertly paced. Diversity in skin tone and sexuality is casually woven into the story. A richly creative magical adventure about challenging an unfair status quo.” -- Kirkus Reviews, starred review * 2/15/24 * * ""Fagan skillfully blends adventure and team-based competitions, set against a memorable, Mediterranean-leaning environment and populated by eclectic characters described as having varying skin tones. Clever, warmhearted, fast-paced, and energetic, this tale has much to offer."" -- Publishers Weekly, starred review * 1/15/24 * * “The transporting novel instantly enthralls, casting readers headlong into a world of impressively well-developed games and mythology. Pia shines as a phenomenal protagonist willing to examine long-held convictions as truths come to light, and the diverse supporting cast is equally as enjoyable, including a delightfully disarming Lady Death. A captivating consideration of what it means to be ‘good’ in an unjust world.” -- Booklist, starred review * 2/15/24 *" "* ""Fagan skillfully blends adventure and team-based competitions, set against a memorable, Mediterranean-leaning environment and populated by eclectic characters described as having varying skin tones.
