Raves & reviews:
"Kids who love adventure books will find this one . . . hard to put down." --The Boston Globe"Luminous, supremely absorbing." --Kirkus Reviews, STARRED REVIEW"Collins creates a fascinating, vivid, highly original world and a superb story to go along with it, and Gregor is endearing as a caring, responsible big brother who rises triumphantly to every challenge. This is sure to be a solid hit with young fantasy fans." --Booklist"In this accessible, almost-cinematic fantasy, Gregor and his two-year-old sister fall into an amazing underground world. . . . This is an engrossing adventure for fantasy fans and for those new to the genre." --School Library Journal"Collins does a grand job of world-building . . . Unlike Gregor who cannot wait to leave, readers will likely find [the Underland] to be a fantastically engaging place." -- Publishers Weekly, STARRED"Cliffhanger chapter endings propel the story forward to its inevitable but nevertheless immensely satisfying conclusion, which, happily for readers, hints at more heart-pounding journeys to the center of the earth." --The Horn BookA NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING SERIESA USA TODAY BESTSELLING SERIESA BOOK SENSE BESTSELLING SERIES
