(I’ve only gotten one other starred review in my career so far, from VOYA, for BORN WICKED.) I know reviews shouldn’t matter too much, but the fact is that sometimes they do, especially for historical fiction, where we hope to get school and library sales. Seeing our hard work recognized in these reviews–especially the star from Booklist!–means a lot to me. It’s truly been a highlight of my publishing career so far. I am so, so proud of this anthology! All 14 of my authors were delightful to work with, and their stories are so great, and our editors and publicist at Candlewick have been nothing but amazing. …a delightful selection of historical tales…These energizing, adventurous, and occasionally somber tales will readily please fans of historical fiction. There is range and balance in tone, voice, and approach, a challenge for anthologies… Readers of historical fiction and adventure need look no further. Stock up–this one will practically sell itself. ★ …historical fiction at its finest…The heroines are tough and memorable and full of heart, and the concept is irresistible.
