Product Details

Praise

“A wonderful, bold interpretation of a DC icon that aspires to embrace all readers, new and old.” —Kirkus Reviews, starred review

“In his brilliant take on Superman, de la Peña shows us that there’s a chance we’ll all need to step up like Clark Kent—with or without a cape.”
Jason ReynoldsNew York Times bestselling author of Miles Morales: Spider-Man and Long Way Down

“Matt de la Peña’s Superman is the quintessential American alien. Despite being caught between two worlds, he’s everything we love about the Man of Steel: courageous, compassionate, and full of hope.”
Gene Luen Yang, author of New Super-Man and National Ambassador for Young People’s Literature

“As Clark learns the truth about his past and questions his identity, one thing remains true: Clark will always help those in need. This is a modern and relevant take on Clark Kent’s teenage years.” —SLJ

“This combination of Superman and De la Peña will fly off shelves, as the award-winning author offers a glimpse into the Man of Steel’s beginning as a teenage outsider.” —Bookllist

Praise for DC Icons:

“Maas has a gift for crafting fierce female protagonists. . . . An epic shoutout to all the bad girls who know how to have fun.”
Kirkus Reviews, STARRED REVIEW (for Catwoman: Soulstealer by Sarah J. Maas)

“You’ll enjoy this book whether you’re a fan of Wonder Woman comics, the Wonder Woman movie, Leigh Bardugo, or just YA lit in general.” —Hypable (for Wonder Woman: Warbringer by Leigh Bardugo)

“Feminism is the invisible jet powering this literary revamp of the Amazon princess.”
The New York Times Book Review (for Wonder Woman: Warbringer by Leigh Bardugo)

“Cinematic battles and a race against time keep the excitement high, but the focus on girls looking out for each other is what makes this tie-in shine.”
Kirkus Reviews, STARRED REVIEW (for Wonder Woman: Warbringer by Leigh Bardugo)

“All readers will definitely be delighted by Bardugo’s cinematic delivery and long for more stories about this epic, ass-kicking heroine.”
VOYA, STARRED REVIEW (for Wonder Woman: Warbringer by Leigh Bardugo)

“A fast-paced story line, action-packed fight sequences, and hi-tech gadgetry expected from any Batman story make this a fun read with wide appeal.”

SLJ (for Batman: Nightwalker by Marie Lu)
“The trickiest aspect of any Batman narrative is getting into Bruce Wayne’s head, and [Lu] doesn’t miss a beat.”
Kirkus Reviews (for Batman: Nightwalker by Marie Lu)
 
“Masterful. . . . A great story for any Dark Knight fan.”
—Den of Geek
(for Batman: Nightwalker by Marie Lu)
