“An unlikely teen is selected to attend Hogwarts-at-the-Pentagon. With action, real humor and a likable, complex protagonist, this fast-moving, satisfying adventure also provides some food for thought.” - Kirkus Reviews

“Hip, high-tech, and hilarious, INSIGNIA made my heart soar and left me with impossible-to-shake questions about technology, reality, and war.” - Rae Carson, New York Times bestselling author of THE GIRL OF FIRE AND THORNS series

Despair and hope, memory and oblivion, love and hate all come together in a climax that employs the trilogy’s greatest strength—the friendships forged among Tom and his fellow cadets—as the key to victory. Kincaid’s trademark spectacular action sequences and affectionate banter make room for Tom’s coming-of-age without compromising what readers have come to love. An unabashedly optimistic denouement is the perfect ending for this series that’s unafraid to ask readers to grapple with big ideas. - Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

PRAISE FOR VORTEX: “Kincaid lays a lot down, twining her increasingly complex plot and characterizations with Tom’s growing awareness.

“Elite teen-soldier Tom Raines is back in Kincaid’s popular Insignia sci-fi series, still battling the bad guys (aka his corporate bosses). The action again rises and the pace becomes more breathless. Vortex is ultimately a technological, high-concept boarding-school tale.” - ALA Booklist

“Kincaid combines a Harry Potter-like teen discovering that he has unknown abilities being sent to a special boarding school with the Ender’s Game plotline of humanity’s space battles being fought remotely by juveniles. She adds espionage, corporate skullduggery and multiple mysterious enemies to create a blockbuster of a debut.” - School Library Journal (starred review)

“Fast-paced battles in a variety of virtual worlds will excite gamers of all levels... Insignia [will] make a popular series for readers who enjoy adventures, science fiction, and espionage.” - Voice of Youth Advocates (VOYA)
