Marie Lu’s RED CITY, a dark and deadly contemporary fantasy of magical warfare, has received three starred reviews!

“Fans of fantasy and romantasy will thoroughly enjoy this book. HIGH-DEMAND BACKSTORY: Lu is a big name in the YA world, and her adult debut is bound to attract adult and teen fans alike.”—Booklist, starred review

“Both heartbreaking and action-packed: an immense achievement.”—Kirkus Reviews, starred review

“Magic and machinations abound in bestselling YA author Lu’s vibrant adult debut . . . Lu builds a rich alternate present that pulls tropes from both magic school and crime drama literary traditions to tell an addictive double ‘chosen one’ story that successfully keeps readers’ sympathies divided. It’s truly enthralling.”—Publisher’s Weekly, starred review
