Reviews

"David Anthony Durham never disappoints. I can't wait to read whatever he writes next." -- George R.R. Martin "Wildly imaginative and thoroughly thrilling, The Shadow Prince is a Hunger Games for a big, strange, magical new world." -- Lev Grossman, author of The Magicians Trilogy "Durham is a master of the fantasy epic." -- The Washington Post "Durham's story is rich in detail and imagination... A rousing romp that shows kindness as a strength and power as a chance to improve our world." -- Booklist "Durham offers up an action-packed, magic-filled adventure made all the more fun by its evocative world building... Ash's narrative voice is distinctly contemporary, full of endearing snark and self-deprecating wit, and readers will appreciate both his happy ending and the unresolved mysteries that leave the door open for sequels." -- Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books "A fantastical, solar-powered Egypt complete with solar chariots and kiteboards is original... Solid and earnest." -- Kirkus Reviews "Inventive... Well-rounded characters infuses the narrative with warmth. Bolstered by an accessible voice, Durham's middle grade debut weaves the power of renewable energy into a rollicking tale of gods and monsters." -- Publishers Weekly "Durham's middle grade debut is full of action, political intrigue, inventive solar powered gadgets, and quirky creatures. Ash is a sympathetic character who discovers his own self-worth and a surprising talent while competing in the grueling competition. An exciting, magical series opener perfect for fans of Rick Riordan, Kwame Mbalia's Tristan Strong, and Jonathan Stroud's 'Bartimaeus' series." -- School Library JournalMaine Student Book Award Nominee 2022-2023 - Maine Library Association
Truman Readers Award Nominee 2023 - Missouri Association of School Librarians
