Praise for the Simon Snow trilogy:
At last! A sequel to Carry On...every fine as fine as the first. ...overall excellence of a book in which every vista pleases and every character delights. Carefully plotted, the book is a classic page-turner right to the open ending which, o frabjous day, promises a sequel to the sequel! One can hardly wait. - Booklist (Starred Review) on Wayward Son
Rowell imbues her magic with awe and spectacle. It's a powerful, politically minded allegory about sexual, ethnic and class identity - with a heady shot of teenage lust. --New York Times Book Review on Carry On
It's a brilliantly addictive, genuinely romantic story about teenagers who can't be neatly sorted into houses, coping with stress and loss and the confusion of just trying to be who they are. It's as if Rowell turned the Harry Potter books inside out, and is showing us the marvelous, subversive stuffing inside. --Time Magazine on Carry On
The funny, wised-up dialogue, the tumultuous, sweet, and sexy love story-- is grade-A Rowell...almost impossible to put down. --Publishers Weekly (starred review) on Carry On
