Description: "This tale of revolutionary intent, self-discovery, and double-crossing cross-dressing is worth the trip. Sailors seeking espionage and a cast of characters who can't sit still should embark on this series' maiden voyage." -- Kirkus Reviews "The world-building is fascinating, the characters entertaining, and a sequel is assured by a cliffhanger. Good fun!" -- School Library Journal "Davis' debut novel promises adventure, magic, mystery, and alchemy, all of which it gleefully provides. ...Middle-grade readers will love the magic of the Chemystral Age and will surely be on the hook for the next two books." -- ALA Booklist "It's worth suspending disbelief to enjoy following this intrepid heroine and her companions, who are full of surprises themselves, on their swashbuckling journey." -- Publishers Weekly "Bound from one danger to the next with Ruby and pals, narrowly escaping bloodthirsty mechanical dogs; a terrifying, maniacal scarred man; and a haughty master of chemystry (to name just a few)... Readers will happily jump on board the promised sequel." -- Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books "A Riddle In Ruby has everything you could possibly want from a story: clever heroes, fiendish villains, startling plot twists, pirates, thieves, swashbuckling, adventure, action, mayhem - and plenty of humor. This is an exceptionally enjoyable, incredibly original series."- -- Stuart Gibbs, author of the New York Times-bestselling Spy School saga
