Product Description

From School Library Journal

Grade 8 Up–Mortal Engines (HarperCollins, 2003) hit the scene like a lightning bolt, with its strikingly original vision of large traction cities moving across a post-apocalyptic landscape, gobbling up smaller municipalities and dismantling them for spare parts. Infernal Devices, the third book in the series, picks up the action almost 20 years after Predator's Gold (HarperCollins, 2004). Tom and Hester have settled in safe Anchorage-in-Vineland with their teenage daughter. Wren, however, thinks that Anchorage is a tad too remote and longs to have adventures like her parents. Opportunity presents itself when a mysterious submarine carrying a group of Lost Boys arrives in Vineland and their leader recruits Wren to steal a mysterious Tin Book. She is kidnapped and sold as a slave. While Tom and Hester set out to rescue her, others, including former adversary Anna Fang, resurrected as the evil robot Stalker Fang, also try to get the book. Reeve keeps the multiple plots moving with surprises, tragedy, and multiple betrayals, and while at first the pacing seems a bit off as the action moves from one group to the next, things speed up by the second half of the book. The final showdown that brings the various threads of plot and all the major characters together is breathtaking. The open-ended conclusion more than begs for an immediate sequel.–Tim Wadham, Maricopa County Library District, Phoenix, AZ

From Booklist

Gr. 7-10. The third exciting book in the Hungry City Chronicles is set nearly 20 years after events in Predator's Gold (2004). Tom and Hester have settled into the isolated, peaceful city of Anchorage, after Wren, their 15-year-old daughter, is bored and wishes to see more of the world, especially the traction cities. When Wren is kidnapped, she discovers that hair-raising adventures are not all they're cracked up to be, and when her parents charge to her rescue, old enemies and new ones block their path. The pace and the violence escalate to a thrilling climax and hint of more battles to come. Sally Estes
