Reviews

"Likely to leave readers ravenous for more." -Kirkus Reviews

Perfect for hard-core fans and new readers looking to fall in love with this smart, rebellious, iconic character. Julian Winters, Award-winning author of As You Walk On By

"Maniacally plotted and diabolically feminist, Harley Quinn: Reckoning shreds misogyny with science and features a girl gang that readers wont be able to get enough of. Every girl whos ever been pushed aside, overlooked, or held back will root for Harleen and be clamoring for more."Lisa Maxwell, author of the New York Times Bestselling The Last Magician series

Harley Quinn: Reckoning is a powerhouse of a villain origin story that sizzles with tension and terror, humor and heart. Allen deftly weaves weighty themes, such as sexism, classism, the way our experiences shape who we become and theway we shatter expectations, into a gripping and witty whodunit. This version of Harley Quinn is my new fave supervillain-in-the-making and I can't wait to read more!Gilly Segal, New York Times bestselling author of I'm Not Dying With You Tonight
