PRAISE FOR THE 'BETWEEN LIONS' SERIES



“Jodi Baker’s first YA series had me hooked at page one with her debut Trust, her second, Truth had me on a magical journey up the spiral staircase
(you’ll have to read to find out).
Between Lions is definitely
the YA series to follow!”
-The New York Times
“Baker created a fantastic world in the middle of urban New York City. Full of literary nods and historical
and mythological details, TRUST is a treat for geeks, librarians, history and literature lovers.
Great job creating strong female characters & portraying beautiful diverse characters!"

"TRUST is an exotic blend of cultures, mythology, & fantasy while at the same time exploring relationships in families and adding new spice to the idea that, 'Knowledge is power.' I couldn't stop reading & can't wait to read more. I love Anna & Inanna and miss their voices already!"
-Melanie Thompson, Librarian Media Specialist for Jefferson City Public Schools
"I loved so many things about TRUST. Introducing young people to a pantheon not covered by Percy Jackson. A story with a basis in the library of Alexandria (as a librarian I'm almost required to love that). The way Anna was homeschooled, a more honest example of my experience with homeschooling families than any I have ever seen in fictional media. All the action, the budding love story, and most of all the mystery. I am sure my list is incomplete, but if even one thing on it sparks your interest, you should devour TRUST just like I did. Just watch your back for Were-animals. And liars. And voices in your head. Trust is a brilliant introduction to a series I can't wait to get to finish."
-Tina Brison, Librarian & Educator
"WOW! Bibliophiles will love this book about books & the coming age of a strong female protagonist. Great discovery at the end - but I'm not a spoiler. Trusting is at the heart of TRUST…who should Anna trust, maybe the most unlikely person."
