Having discovered the monstrous secret of his origins, Archie Dent is no longer certain that he is worthy to be a member of the League of Seven. But with new enemies to face, he realizes that he may not have the luxury of questioning his destiny.

Wielding the Dragon Lantern, the maniacal Philomena Moffett has turned her back on the Septemberist Society, creating her own Shadow League and unleashing a monster army on the American continent. Archie and his friends must race to find the last two members of their league in time to thwart Moffett's plan and rescue humanity once more.

"Those who enjoyed Westerfeld's Leviathan series will also find the League of Seven engaging." --Children's Literature on The Dragon Lantern

"Gratz continues to impress with his alternate 1870s America, which is believable in its innovation and the way it plays with actual events. The scene is set for a dramatic and challenging conclusion in book three." --Booklist on The Dragon Lanterns

"What else can I say, the book has robot ninjas, rayguns, mind control, and electricity cannons." --Travis, age 16, YALSA's YA Galley reviewer, on The League of Seven
