Críticas:

"A fun ride, full of adventure, suspense, and good characterization." - "School Library Journal"
"A fast-paced mindbender." - "Booklist"
"Choldenko infuses each (character) with a unique tenderness and humor . . . a thoughtful but still entertaining book-club choice." -"The Bulletin for the Center of Children's Books"
