Description: "Intricate world-building, effective characterization, and an oppressed class fomenting revolution make this creative adaptation of Charles Dickens's A Tale of Two Cities a natural fit for Hunger Games fans." - School Library Journal "This dark-fantasy-meets-romance will have readers hooked." - Horn Book Magazine "Lucie is a dynamic and complex character, burdened by oppressive secrets from her past and yet fiery and fierce, hellbent on saving those she loves no matter the cost." - Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books "Retellings of beloved classics are tricky, but here, Dickens's overall plot and major characters translate effortlessly into this intriguingly imagined setting. Lucie and Ethan are more complex than their rather insipid Victorian prototypes, and Carwyn retains all the bad-boy fascination of his charismatic counterpart." - Kirkus Reviews "An engrossing and relevant read." - Booklist "Sarah Rees Brennan writes with fine control and wit, and I suspect that word of this magical thriller will pass through the populace with the energy of wind, of fire." - Gregory Maguire, author of Wicked "Brennan takes the genres of young adult, fantasy, and romance, and through her own writerly, alchemical process converts them into something new and strange and lovely." - Kelly Link, author of Get in Trouble
