    “This is something really special and unexpected. Approximately the story of three child saints…but with zero religious overtones. And perhaps they aren’t saints at all? Also dragons, mad monks, and a final chase scene that is closer to a Michael Mann movie than a kid’s book. Gidwitz is an excellent writer and a joy to read out loud. When I see this in a bookstore, I always face it out on the shelf.”
