    About The Notorious Scarlett and Browne

    “Stroud is a genius.” —Rick Riordan

    The now notorious outlaws Scarlett and Browne are back in their second death-defying adventure—and this time it’s not just their own lives on the line. . . .

    Albert and Scarlett are a formidable pair. With his ability to read minds and her way with a weapon, no bank can keep them out and no jail can keep them in.
         But their notoriety may have spread a bit too far. Now old enemies from Scarlett’s past and a sinister new threat from Albert’s world are boxing them in—and holding their friends hostage.
         To win their freedom, the outlaws Scarlett and Browne are charged with pulling off an impossible mission.
         And the clock is ticking . . .

    Fans of Jonathan Stroud’s The Outlaws Scarlett and Browne won’t want to miss their next adventure.

    Praise

    ★ ”Stroud dishes up another headlong plot replete with cliffhangers, breathtaking feats, and all-too-narrow escapes. Rousing, swashbuckling fun.” — Kirkus Reviews, starred

    ★ “[A] fizzingly paced adventure. Full of action, outlaws, dystopian societies, and post-apocalyptic ghouls. To say the stakes are high is an understatement, but that is Stroud at his best. Both hilarious and suspenseful.” —The Horn Book Magazine, starred

    “Stroud outdoes himself in this second book, finding inventive ways to amp up the thrills as Scarlett and Albert tackle more dangerous heists and confront fearsome villains from their pasts. The author displays a cinematic eye for detail in thrilling action sequences. Stroud’s writing crackles with wit. The extremely satisfying ending seems to promise yet another book in this marvelous series.” —The Buffalo News

    “Stroud’s inventive plotting and playful language make for a clever, suspenseful and fizzingly paced adventure.” —Toronto Star

    “Humorous, nail-biting and rich in unexpected turns of phrase, this is beautifully constructed storytelling of the first order.” — Sunday Times
     
    “Witty and scary.” Financial Times, Best books of 2022: Young adult
     
    “[A] rowdy, rollicking, remarkable road trip.” — Daily Mail
     
    “Funny and gripping, it will be irresistible to anyone, child or adult, who loves action movies and steampunk.” — New Statesman
