Starmer has constructed a multitude of worlds here, all tied to power of creation, and the boredom that ultimate power ultimately bestows. --School Library Journal, starred review

In this sequel to The Riverman, 12-year-old Alistair Cleary travels to a parallel world searching for his missing friend, Fiona . . . A riveting, imaginative, disconcerting, inscrutable, unresolved sequel, guaranteed to leave readers anxious for the finale. --Kirkus Reviews, starred review

Fantasy lovers up to the challenge will devour The Whisper and crave the third book in the trilogy. --VOYA
