"This is an excellent choice to read aloud to the whole family. It's funny, exciting, and briskly paced. The message it gives young readers is that a person's flaws-being late, breaking things, etc.-can sometimes turn into useful talents." --Nancy Pearl on NPR'S Morning Edition
"In this original, hysterical homage to fantasy literature, Sanderson's first novel for youth recalls the best in Artemis Fowl and A Series of Unfortunate Events." --VOYA
"A happily action-packed romp... and a cliffhanger ending that promises more of the same. Plus dinosaurs in tweed vests. Who could ask for more?" --Horn Book
