Review Quotes: ★ "Lees layers and intersects multiple plotlines in this second Whisperwicks novel to richly develop Wreathenwold and the story's primary characters. The themes of home and belonging are central to the narrative, which continues to build toward a reckoning with Wreathenwold's corrupt elite in a future installment."--Booklist, starred review
