* "Everything readers think they know about both worlds will be
upended by this enthralling installment."-- "Library Journal,
STARRED REVIEW"
"Borderline [is] a strange, fast-paced, and surprisingly dark tale
about magic, madness and mystique...Despite the engaging plot,
Millie's character, and the complexities in the characters around
her made the book a real page-turner for me...Immensely riveting,
with unexpected influxes of depth."-- "MuggleNet.com, on
BORDERLINE"
"Baker's consistent, caring integration of the realities of
disability into the narrative, makes Borderline one of the most
purely respectful portrayals of people with disabilities that I've
ever had the pleasure of reading, and that in turn makes it an
excellent launch to a very promising urban fantasy series."--
"Publishers Weekly STAFF PICK, on BORDERLINE"
"Mishell Baker's new Arcadia Project series is off to a thrilling
and glamorous start with Borderline...Baker has given her audience
urban fantasy at its finest--visceral and real in its sense of
space, and dancing on the uncanny edges of our vision...Borderline
is dark and creeping and smart as a whip."-- "Tor.com, on
BORDERLINE"
"Baker's prose is a liquid line with light in it, that you can't
tell is gasoline until she touches it with a match.... Phantom
Pains succeeds in being both seamlessly connected to Borderline and
utterly its own ambitious project. I was constantly aware of being
impressed with it while being absorbed by it - and I ended up
loving it more than Borderline, which is saying something."--
"Lightspeed Magazine"
"Borderline is worldbuilding at its most original...I loved this
book."--Charlaine Harris, New York Times bestselling author of DEAD
UNTIL DARK, on BORDERLINE
