Learn about the first Alston Boy adventure, The Last Last-Day-of-Summer, HERE.Ībout the Author: Lamar Giles is a well-published author and a founding member of We Need Diverse Books. “A complex and exciting fantasy adventure that encourages readers to question what they know about incarceration, justice, laws, and the people who enforce them.“ – School Library Journal (Starred Review) “An emotionally resonant and action-packed sequel that manages to be an even greater adventure than its predecessor.“ – Booklist (Starred Review) “A fantastic second addition to an already-acclaimed series.” – Kirkus Reviews (Starred Review) This funny and off-the-wall adventure is perfect for readers of Jonathan Auxier and Lemony Snicket. One of her worst prisoners has escaped, and only the Legendary Alston Boys of Logan County can help bring the fugitive to justice. However, she’s willing to overlook the cousins’ misdeeds if they help her with a problem of her own. Usually that’s an unforgivable offense, punishable by a million-year sentence. Unlike the majority of Logan County’s residents, Missus Nedraw of the Rorrim Mirror Emporium remembers the time freeze from The Last Last-Day-of-Summer, and how Otto and Sheed took her mirrors without permission in order to fix their mess. Summary: In this new Legendary Alston Boys adventure from Edgar-nominated author Lamar Giles, Otto and Sheed must embark on their most dangerous journey yet, bringing a fugitive to justice in a world that mirrors their own but has its own rules to play by. Pulication Date: October 20th, 2020 from Versify A Legendary Alston Boys Adventure: The Last Mirror on the Left
