immediately pulling the reader into Spirit’s mourning psyche as well as the fast-paced action of the mystery, mixing marvelous elements of fairy tales and mythology into both the plot and references in the students’ Magical History class. There’s also a touch of gentle romance, and readers who appreciate everything from X-Men to Harry Potter will be begging for the sequel.”

—Booklist

“A really good read. The authors do a great job of juxtaposing a scary theme and the ordinary angst of adolescents. They also do a nice job with the metaphor of magical gifts as means of self-actualization. Legacies has enough action for reluctant readers, and enough character development for teens to see themselves in this group of friends. The book’s fans are sure to eagerly await Spirit’s discovery of her mage gift and further confrontations with the forces of evil.”

—School Library Journal

“A great read for those who love contemporary fantasy or want a more urban version of a magical boarding school.”

—Sacramento Book Review

“The authors expertly balance a heady mixture of mystery and teenage romance in this well-paced first of the Shadow Grail series.”

—RT Book Reviews

“An exciting thriller in which the locale, creepy Oakhurst Academy, brings the freshness with its foreboding sort of gothic ambience.… With a bit of romance, a lot of suspense, and a young adult investigation into missing students, teenage fans will want to attend the dances at eerie Oakhurst Academy.”

—Midwest Book Review
