Emily Whitman's first novel, Radiant Darkness, was praised for its "originality and flair" by BCCB and was a #1 IndieBound Pick. The author lives with her family in Portland, Oregon.
"Whitman keeps the suspense high and delivers a satisfying conclusion. A wonderful selection for readers ready to dip their toes into variations on myths and legends without the mayhem and adult themes that often accompany the original tales." -- School Library Journal"Whitman builds a beautiful slow burn with her evocative middle-grade debut. ...the many layers make for a satisfying read. A contemplative tale about the yearning to belong." -- Booklist"A half-human, half-selkie boy searches for a way to belong. ...Told from Aran's first-person point of view, the story goes smoothly...[a] well-conceived story." -- Kirkus Reviews
