Description
The second book in the middle-grade dystopian fantasy series that Kirkus Reviews calls "The Hunger Games meets Harry Potter," by New York Times bestselling author Lisa McMann. Following the life-altering events at the conclusion of The Unwanteds, the stark world of Quill and the magical haven of ArtimE are now home to whoever wants to live there, whether they are Wanteds, Unwanteds, or Necessaries. In ArtimE, Alex Stowe and his friends continue to hone their artistic magical spells while welcoming newcomers, wondering how long this peace between Quill and ArtimE will last. Alex is stunned when Mr. Today comes to him with a very special request-one Alex questions his readiness for, until circumstances offer a dramatic answer. And back in Quill, Aaron Stowe, Alex's twin, faces a very different path. Devastated by his loss of status after Justine's defeat and seething with rage toward Alex, Aaron is stealthily planning his revenge and return to power. Alex and Aaron's separate stories proceed with suspenseful pacing, colliding in a stunning climax that elevates sibling rivalry to epic proportions and leaves the fate of both worlds hanging in the balance.

        Gr 5-9-When the wall between Quill and Artime fell, it allowed the disatisfied members of each kingdom the freedom to choose where they wanted to live. With the disruption of their ordered world, many Quillens blame the Artimean leader, Mr. Today, for stealing their working class. As Mr. Today works in conjunction with the new Quillen leader to bring peace, Aaron Stowe, disgraced former assistant to the High Priestess, vows to seek not only power, but also revenge. Meanwhile, his twin, Alex, is being groomed by Mr. Today to eventually lead the creative minds of Artime, learning secrets known only to the one who created their land. Alex and Mr. Today are also seeking an explanation for the startling appearance of two silent, foreign children. When several of Alex's best friends go missing, his greatest fear is that they may be trapped in the hostile world from which the strange children escaped. Narrated by James Langton, McMann's sequel (2012) to Unwanteds (2011, both Aladdin) deftly continues the story, drawing listeners into a darker, deeper world. Langton brings a sense of somberness to the story as Alex struggles to cope with the changes in his beloved Artime. Constantly under attack from Quill and facing the prospect of being left in charge, for even a short while, Alex's self-doubt is consistently evident in the narration, and as the stakes grow ever higher, listeners will be left hovering on the edges of their seats, desperate for the next book in this exciting dystopian fantasy series.-Jessica Miller, West Springfield Public Library, MA
