"I think this one is going to be a giant hit with reluctant readers as well as finally having more paranormal fantasy stories for guys. Working at the bookstore you don't find a lot of these kinds of books in that YA section. It's all about the girls. So this was a burst of fresh air that the genre needed. The book was well paced and fun." -Crossroads Reviews

"Neverwraith not only delivers on its promise to be an explosive and innovative paranormal story, but it also touches on themes of self-discovery, resilience, and the realization of one's true potential. The story seamlessly blends elements of Bel-Air's edge, wit and charm with the intrigue of Cloak & Dagger. Rashaan's debut YA novel skillfully combines the paranormal elements of Yasir's shifting powers with the challenges and relatable struggles of being a teenager in an unfamiliar environment. This is a promising start to a thrilling series that will leave readers eagerly anticipating the next installment." -Naleighna Kai, Author
