Recenzje

"The bold narrative eerily echoes many of the issues that presently plague the country, describing the destructive nature of capitalism and the impact its oppression wreaks on a nation. Insightful, admirable, and well executed." - Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

"Delivers a knockout punch. Ireland mingles an in-depth understanding of human nature with a wildly ambitious reimagining of the Depression era, balancing matters of race, gender, and sexuality in this thoroughly unique perspective of historical magical fantasy." - Publishers Weekly (starred review)

"Tackles important social issues while providing an exciting and fast-paced adventure that's hard to put down." - School Library Journal (starred review)

"Complex world-building rooted in dark events of American history is leavened by humor and a pace that rarely lags. The sheer breadth of imagination on display is extraordinary." - Booklist (starred review)

"Ireland has confidently merged the historical and the mystical into a fast-paced, complex, and entertaining read." - The Horn Book

"Justina Ireland sets her dazzling new novel, with its blistering critique of the nation's racist history, in 1936-37 during the "Great Rust"-a steampunk version of the Great Depression. Thrilling." - Buffalo News
