Recenzii
"This
appealing
and
elegantly
written
adventure
tacks
well
to
the
lee
of
weather-related
politics,
relying
instead
for
narrative
power
on
vivid
scenes,
engaging
characters
and
satisfying
twists
both
of
plot-and
of
wind."—The
Wall
Street
Journal
"Smith expertly conjures the dusty feel of a Midwest where hope itself is baking away...this is miles away from most magical fare, and is therefore a real breath of fresh air."—Booklist
"Building like a summer storm, the pace and drama accelerate as thunderstorms, earthquakes, wildfires and tornadoes buffet the twin protagonists, who stand together as they face the elements....Credible and timely fantasy for the global-warming generation."—Kirkus Reviews
"It's easy to root for the twins, especially smart, science-savvy Ruby, who stands by her brother while struggling with her jealousy about his special status."—Publishers Weekly
"A good fit for the target audience...[with] broad appeal."—VOYA
"The idea of ordinary kids finding out they have extraordinary powers has time-honored appeal, and this sturdy, well-plotted fantasy successfully combines contemporary concerns with old-fashioned charm in a way that should please readers of Law'sSavvy."—The Bulletin
