Description: Praise for The Only Thing to Fear "Richmond makes an impressive debut with this alternate history . . . She twists history and throws in creative exploitation of superpowers to deliver a fast-paced adventure." -- Publishers Weekly "Reminiscent of series like The Hunger Games and Divergent , but the alternative-history angle adds a spark of its own." -- Booklist "An outstanding debut that will thrill readers of all ages." -- SciFiPulse.net " The Only Thing to Fear can be summed up in two words: realistically frightening. . . . This heart-stopping novel goes to the extremes of what could have been and what may have been done." -- TeenReads.com "The plot is fast-paced and will appeal to both historical fiction and science fiction readers." -- Library Media Connection Praise for Live in Infamy * "Social issues have as much weight here as the historical elements. The simplicity of the story works in the book's favor; potentially challenging material is accessible to middle grade readers, but there is enough action to hook older ones . . . This is a good introduction to historical reimagining for middle grades; all readers will be engaged with the handling of social issues as well as revelations about the secret pockets of resistors, their plots, and their battles with authorities." -- School Library Journal , starred review "Despite the alternate history premise, news-conscious young readers may recognize themes eerily similar to the current political climate." -- School Library Connection "In this stand-alone companion to The Only Thing to Fear (2014), Richmond skillfully embellishes a dystopian fantasy world shaped by actual events in history . . . The historically enticing premise is brilliantly crafted." -- Kirkus Reviews Praise for The Darkest Hour "Rife with action and intrigue, this work explores a little-known history of women in World War II. The novel passes the Bechdel test with flying colors . . ." -- School Library Journal "Thrills, action, and the moral certainty of fighting Nazis drive this thriller." -- Kirkus Reviews
