A compelling and inventive novel set in a world where science and magic are at odds, by Robin McKinley, the Newbery-winning author of The Hero and the Crown and The Blue Sword, as well as the classic fantasy titles Beauty, Chalice, Spindle’s End, Pegasus and Sunshine Maggie knows something’s off about Val, her mom’s new husband. Val is from Oldworld, where they still use magic, and he won’t have any tech in his office-shed behind the house. But—more importantly—what are the huge, horrible, jagged, jumpy shadows following him around? Magic is illegal in Newworld, which is all about science. The magic-carrying gene was disabled two generations ago, back when Maggie’s great-grandmother was a notable magician. But that was a long time ago. Then Maggie meets Casimir, the most beautiful boy she has ever seen. He’s from Oldworld too—and he’s heard of Maggie’s stepfather, and has a guess about Val’s shadows. Maggie doesn’t want to know . . . until earth-shattering events force her to depend on Val and his shadows. And perhaps on her own heritage. In this dangerously unstable world, neither science nor magic has the necessary answers, but a truce between them is impossible. And although the two are supposed to be incompatible, Maggie’s discovering the world will need both to survive.“A delightful read.”—Publishers Weekly “Bound to appeal.”—Kirkus Reviews

“So Shadowman's not in the Cape Cells… me and him, we didn’t exactly get along well that last conversation,” I admit.“You can find him,” Technico says. “Skye can find him as long as he’s not roaming the shadows, but you can find him, regardless.”“Can you?”“I can find his phone—but the moment I do, he’s usually switching to another one. Your dad is paranoid, for good reason.”“So you want me to focus on Shadowman, while you take out Herold?”“That about sums it up,” he agrees.It’s dangerous—but not as dangerous as a lot of the stuff I’ve done in the past. “If I find him, how am I going to stop him? He’s a lot older than I am, and he’s more powerful, right?”“He is,” Nico says. “And there’s a good chance he’s got a technopath behind him, just like you do. We just need to take that into account—”“But—” I jerk, since I wasn’t the one that said that. There, standing in the hall, is Carla, her hand over her mouth.“You should be in bed,” I say automatically. “You’ve got classes in the morning.”“Classes don’t matter!” she says, stepping into the room. “You’re just planning on running off on your own to find Shadowman, right? You could get caught—or killed!”“He won’t kill me, I’m his son."
