Critics Review

Gorgeous prose, delicious magic * V.E. Schwab, bestselling author of The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue on LITTLE THIEVES *
[M]asterful storytelling…Another winding tale of intrigue and adventures that leans heavily on the heart * Kirkus Reviews, Starred Review on PAINTED DEVILS *
Owen writes [Vanja’s] story with the compassion and wit that will leave readers holding her close * Booklist, Starred Review on PAINTED DEVILS *
Holy Terrors is the culmination of a spectacular YA trilogy that is constantly tricksy and thrives most in its incredible characterisation and mysteries * The Nerd Daily *
The rare final chapter in a YA fantasy trilogy that not only sticks the landing but whose ending elevates the entire series into something greater than the sum of its parts, Margaret Owen’s Holy Terrors is emotional, chaotic, and utterly unhinged in all the best ways. It’s hard to overstate how evident Owen’s care and craft are throughout this tale or how utterly satisfying its conclusion turns out to be * Den of Geek *
