Bluecrowne: A Greenglass House Story

Ages 10 to 12, Grades 5 to 7

Lucy Bluecrowne wants a life of adventure on the high seas. But when her brother is kidnapped by two time-travelers in search of a magic only he possesses, she gets more adventure than she bargained for in her fight to save him.

Lucy Bluecrowne is beginning a new life ashore with her stepmother and half-brother, though she’s certain the only place she’ll ever belong is with her father on a ship of war. She doesn’t care that living in a house is safer and the proper place for a twelve-year-old girl; it’s boring. But then two nefarious strangers identify her little brother as the pyrotechnical prodigy they need to enact an evil plan, and it will take all Lucy’s fighting instincts to keep her family together.* “A suspenseful tale properly supplied with sinister villains, clever twists, large explosions, and heartbreaking sacrifices.” —Kirkus, starred review

“A sophisticated tale filled with masterful world building, time travel, science, and nautical life.” —School Library Journal
