(2) YA Newworld, Maggie's home, is science-driven; magic, fairy tales, and fantasy are all frowned upon, which is why the mysterious, sentient shadows that surround Maggie's stepfather are troubling--as is Maggie's ability to see them. Maggie is a sardonic and sharp narrator. McKinley's skill at building memorable worlds is also evident: Newworld itself is as intriguing as the characters.
