PRAISE FOR SERAFINA AND THE BLACK CLOAK "The vast estate with a
haunted past and a creepy present makes for an atmospheric setting,
and Serafina's multiple narrow escapes from her enemy are
absolutely thrilling. Serafina herself is an enchanting heroine,
brave and determined, and her attraction to the dark forest adds
another layer of suspense and mystery."--BCCB
*"Beatty continues to build a fascinating magical world, the Blue
Ridge Mountains and Biltmore Estate developing beyond mere settings
into characters themselves. Each place reveals history and clues to
Serafina's life and those of other gifted, mysterious beings. Even
better than its predecessor, a sequel that delivers nonstop thrills
from beginning to end."--Kirkus, starred review
"The characterization is solid, and the powerful imagery that made
the first installment such a success is more consistent here.
Readers who enjoyed the first novel will not be disappointed in
this continuation and will anxiously await the next exciting
adventure... Eerie gothic imagery, a ferociously scrappy heroine,
and an elegant setting combine seamlessly to create a captivating
mystery that will be well received by fans."--School Library
