Praise for Daughters of Steel: ? “Emphasizing the power of community and trust, fighting through fear, and believing in oneself, [this book] delivers both adventure and satisfying complexity. A thrilling second act filled with faith, determination, and the pursuit of justice.“ -- Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

“Cyprus delivers a fast-paced, adventurous story with satisfying moments of quiet self-discovery. Halan and Nalah’s challenges are as much about defeating evil foes as they are about discovering their individual identity and using that knowledge to make difficult decisions. A smart, satisfying sequel.” -- ALA Booklist

Praise for Sisters of Glass: ? “Cyprus creates two appealing and independent female protagonists; their mirrored worlds are a fresh alternative to familiar medieval Europe-esque fantasylands. A story that will inspire many to find the light within.” -- Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

? “The Prince and the Pauper is given Arabian Nights flair in this clever retelling that unites magic and adventure. Enchantment, plot twists, and the realization that what you see is not always what you get, make this debut novel inviting and fun.” -- Booklist (starred review)

“Those searching for a new fantasy may want to give this one a try.” -- School Library Journal

Naomi Cyprus is the author of Sisters of Glass and Daughters of Steel. She lives on the beach with her two cats, Pim and Haze. She came up with the idea for Halan’s and Nalah’s worlds while walking on the sand one day, when she imagined that each grain had the potential for magic. Ms. Cyprus loves strong tea and occasionally dyeing her hair blue.
