The Awakening

Praise for The Summoning "Teen readers might scream loud enough to raise the dead." - Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

"Armstrong has some fun toying with supernatural teen thriller conventions, and the taut pacing should please fans of the exploding genre." - ALA Booklist

The second installment of the Darkest Powers series hits the ground running, leaving readers tripping, stumbling and racing to keep up. Teens grappling with their own transformations and alienating individuality will certainly follow these characters to the book's final pages and into the next volume. Dark alleys, undead bodies and bountiful blood will cause shivers, while Chloe's chemistry with both boys will raise readers' pulses. - Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

"A page-turner. Readers will anticipate the book to follow." - Voice of Youth Advocates (VOYA)
