Publisher Review

A breakneck sci-fi romp that’s perfect for gamers, puzzle fiends and fact-fans. * Ross Montgomery * It was such an intelligent, well-crafted, immersive, and exhilarating read! Thank you for sending it to me. As I said on Twitter: it has all the mind-expanding wonder of A Wrinkle in Time, the tech-wizardry of Ready Player One, and a generous sprinkling of Jen’s own unique magic. It’ll be unmissable when it publishes. * Sinead O’Hart * I thought it was a bogglingly brilliant story for readers and gamers alike. A whirlwind of fun and mystery across space and time. A triumph of friendship, courage and brains over adversity, villains, and plots. And robots! * Thomas Taylor * A lead title from Walker: Bell puts a clever and highly immersive spin on the middle-grade fantasy adventure. — Fiona Noble * The Bookseller *
