"I used to read fantasy novels years ago, but quit when they all became poor copies of each other. This book is a fantasy unlike any I’ve read in the past."

Quotes

  • “The Finisher is an enchanting romp through a fantastical world worthy of Rowling or Brooks. Baldacci proves that his pen can engage youth as well as adults.”

    — Richard Paul Evans, #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Michael Vey series
  • “This vividly described tale takes readers to an original fantasy world full of strange creatures, intriguing relationships, and long-lost secrets. Baldacci knows how to deliver thrills.”

    — Brandon Mull, #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Fablehaven series
  • “What happens when an international bestselling crime novelist tries his hand at a youth fantasy? Well, in this case, success.”

    — Booklist (starred review)
  • “Best known for his adult crime novels, Baldacci makes a detour into middle-grade with this wildly fanciful and darkly intriguing tale of a girl forced to fight for her life as she investigates the secrets of her tiny community.”

    — Publishers Weekly
  • “Barber narrates in a charming and vibrant voice that captures Vega’s personality and guides listeners through this magical world. Her soft delivery and English accent are inviting. She creates clear and distinguished voices for the characters that stand apart from Vega’s first-person perspective. Equally important, she balances timing, projection, and tone to create some fantastic moments of tension and excitement throughout the book.”
