Critics Review

There is more extraordinary world-building, as well as tough ethical decisions, in Wundersmith, Jessica Townsend’s superlative follow-up to the unmissable Nevermoor. - The Guardian

Enter the world of Nevermoor and its fantastical inhabitants, and be utterly enchanted. - Courier-Mail

Inventive, thoughtful, and an outrageous amount of fun, Townsend is now two for two in the Nevermoor series, and there’s likely to be thousands of children (and, okay, a lot of adults too) dying to see what Morrigan Crow gets up to next. - The Au Review

Townsend’s sophomore endeavor once again fully immerses her readers in a world that intermixes the magic of the Emerald City with Howl’s pithiness, Percy Jackson’s humor, Coraline’s darkness, and perhaps a dash of the depravity of Katniss’ District One. Fantasy fans will not be disappointed. Savvy readers will appreciate how the themes of otherness, group privilege, prejudice, and activism are masterfully interwoven into the overall plot. The only sad spot in an otherwise enjoyable text is the hanging question: How long until Book 3 comes out? A worthy title that deserves a spot on the fantasy shelves. - Kirkus
