Praise for The Quest of the Cubs:* "Nature, magic, and legend combine to create a world like no other." -- Kirkus Reviews, starred review"Readers will lose themselves in the life-and-death adventure of the cubs and succumb to human feelings of fear, loss, and hope... They'll be waiting with bated breath for the next installment." -- Booklist"The text is rich and blends fantasy with a realistic setting...A series opener that promises to deliver action and adventure." -- School Library JournalPraise for The Den of Forever Frost:*"Nonstop action, overwhelming odds, and a truly evil adversary will make readers clamor for the next installment... Proof that a sequel can shine just as brightly." -- Kirkus Reviews, starred review"Lasky's brilliant imagery of the fantasy ice world and her believably strong, determined bears won't disappoint readers. The final paragraph brings sighs and silence as the bears contemplate the completion of their quest in the series' next book." -- BooklistPraise for The Escape: Horses of the Dawn #1:"As in works such as her Guardians of Ga'hoole series, Lasky uses animals to touch on very human issues . . . Complex and distinctive characters offer a fresh view of familiar historical events. A promising start to a new series." -- Kirkus Reviews"Lasky successfully fuses fantasy and fact as she gives her equine characters credible emotional depth and underscores the tensions and disparity between Old and New World sensibilities. It's a haunting story of loss, self-discovery, survival, and homecoming." -- Publishers WeeklyPraise for Guardians of Ga'Hoole: The Rise of a Legend:* "Lyze's story can be read easily as a stand-alone tale. . . . Both thoughtful and action-packed, this adventure illuminates the fantastical world that exists between dusk and dawn." -- Kirkus Reviews, starred review
