What They're Saying!

PRAISE FOR WONDROUS STRANGE

"Oh, bestselling Twilight, thou hast a strong contender. Livingston delivers with skillful momentum, in the same way she unveils the complicated faerie plots lurking behind the fabric of the everyday... With mastery, Livingston handles the dramatic agony of growing up... As a young adult fantasy, this book has it all."~Globe and Mail

"Dark enchantment and treacherous magic enliven every page."~ Melissa de la Cruz, author of the Blue Blood series

"Wow! Wondrous Strange is enchanting from beginning to end! With a marvelously refreshing heroine, a genuinely lovable hero, and a swift-moving, fascinating plot, Ms. Livingston gives a modern twist to the age-old epic ihero's coming of age' story. Set against the play A Midsummer Night's Dream, Wondrous Strange shows that the world of Faerie can be updated and yet retain its age-old charm—as well as its aura of deadly danger. This is my kind of fiction, and my kind of heroine! I enjoyed it immensely, and think Lesley Livingston will go far!" ~ LJ Smith, author of the NY Times bestselling Vampire Diaries

"The narrative is rich with incident and mouting tension, but allows for imaginative set pieces ... it builds on the familiar without sacrificing originality... here's hoping that the two remaining books in the trilogy succeed as well." ~ Robert J. Wiersema, for Quill and Quire (starred review)

"Completely absorbing and perfectly polished — Livingston's vision of faeries in the modern world is bright and exciting. A dazzling debut!"~ Don Bassingthwaite, author of The Doom Kings

"Many novels start off well. But rarely do they keep getting better, and better, until they deliver so much more than they promise that, by the end, a standing ovation is in order. Wondrous Strange is that rare kind of novel. A nearly miraculous balancing act that juggles Celtic faerie shenanigans, New York City, a sense of humor, Shakespeare, courtly love, peril and honor and a perfectly logical plot that keeps twisting deeper and darker into layer after layer of magic -- and oh, by the way, did I mention that the characters are to love and die for? If you have ever in your life felt the lure of things most wondrous strange, don't miss this book." ~ Nancy Springer, Edgar Award winning author of The Enola Holmes series

"Set against the backdrop of present-day New York City, this enchanting first novel weaves together the worlds of theater and magic in a way that is sure to please fans of both. Readers will revel in the hints of Shakespeare within the text as they are introduced to faerie creatures both familiar and 'wondrous strange.'" ~ Misti Tidman, Boyd County Public Library, Ashland, KY
