New York Times bestseller!

Artemis Fowl meets Men in Black in this exhilarating debut middle grade fantasy, the first in a trilogy filled with #blackgirlmagic. Perfect for fans of Tristan Strong Punches a Hole in the Sky, the Percy Jackson series, and Nevermoor.

Amari Peters has never stopped believing her missing brother, Quinton, is alive. Not even when the police told her otherwise, or when she got in trouble for standing up to bullies who said he was gone for good.

So when she finds a ticking briefcase in his closet, containing a nomination for a summer tryout at the Bureau of Supernatural Affairs, she's certain the secretive organization holds the key to locating Quintonâ??if only she can wrap her head around the idea of magicians, fairies, aliens, and other supernatural creatures all being real.

Now she must compete for a spot against kids who've known about magic their whole lives. No matter how hard she tries, Amari can't seem to escape their intense doubt and scrutinyâ??especially once her supernaturally enhanced talent is deemed "illegal." With an evil magician threatening the supernatural world, and her own classmates thinking she's an enemy, Amari has never felt more alone. But if she doesn't stick it out and pass the tryouts, she may never find out what happened to Quinton.

Plus don't miss the thrilling sequel, Amari and the Great Game!… (plus d'informations)

A little too much Dylan (though I enjoyed him) but an ultimately charming story! I can't wait for the movie version Marsai Martin's production company is working on. ( )

Incredible read for all ages--the smoothest pacing I've ever seen. Absolute magic ✨ ( )

Headstrong Amari sets out to prove her big brother is not dead. He is just missing, sets out to find him. She joins the same summer camp for leaders that her brother disappeared from hoping to find answers. ( )

Well that was such a wonderful YA fantasy fiction book!

The characters are so endearing and I loved the level of intrigue in the mystery element of the story. The world building was marvelous and the magical system was very interesting. I really hope this turns into more than a trilogy as there is the potential to create a new fantasy book series that people grow up with, where the characters age as Readers do throughout the publications. Fingers crossed this is the direction this is going. Thoroughly recommend for late middle school and early high school and of course anyone who loves fantasy fiction! ( )

its been a long while since i enjoyed a middle grade book. i picked this up as a palette cleanser, and it worked wonders for my mood :) a very easy and pleasant read. a bit like percy jackson, with men in black thrown in the mix (with some social commentary, the lead character being a 12 year old black girl from the wrong side of town and all...but not at all preachy or heavy handed). not your next harry potter...or skulduggery pleasant...but i'm glad there is this book for the next generation of readers.

(btw, the ending genuinely caught me off guard, so, well done ^_^) ( )
