The Ruby Kingdom
CM Magazine: 3 Stars - Recommended
“Bow has developed an interesting shift to the classic fantasy tale of portals to other worlds, and the eventual discovery of what Mara actually is comes as an exciting surprise. Bow’s characters are very appealing, and readers will relate to the spunky Ammy, the reliable, protective Simon and the joking and inventive Ike. At the book’s conclusion, readers will be tantalized by the promise of other doors, and the sequel to The Ruby Kingdom will be anxiously anticipated.”
The Bone Flute

“Bow’s roots as a master storyteller shine through magically here. This talented author’s second contribution to the English market is nothing short of a total success, and children’s literature in Canada is all the better for it.”

“a sophisticated mix of suspense/mystery/thriller with a good measure of fantasy thrown in.”
