Media Reviews
Readers will be happy to slip back into Black's elaborate, fascinating world of workers, curses, and the seeming ease with which everyone has learned to live in a world where no one, not even family, can be truly trusted, and this sequel offers satisfying additional glimpses into this nearly familiar but ultimately shockingly different world. -- Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books
Dark, disturbing fare, crafted by a master; readers of the trilogy's first will be supremely satisfied. -- Kirkus Reviews
* Black again delivers complex characters and a nicely developed alternate universe where magic workers are social pariahs. This powerful, edgy dark fantasy won't disappoint Black's fans. -- Publishers Weekly , starred review
The Curse Workers series continues to offer a sleek and stylish blend of urban fantasy and crime noir. -- Booklist
