“Middle-grade readers with a love of high-stakes fantasy will be pleased with this time-crossed historical adventure.” -BookLife Reviews by Publishers Weekly

“The epic reveal we’ve been waiting for with the biggest stakes yet! You’ll be breathlessly turning pages until the very end…” -Sam Subity, author of The Last Shadow Warrior

“This is Gartner’s finest, most nuanced book in the series, and literally EVERYTHING is at stake here. It’s the kind of story that can be enjoyed by younger readers looking for an exciting read or deeper thinkers who love to ponder the intricacies of time travel and the hidden histories we aren’t taught in school. After two outstanding MG novels, Ben Gartner has put an exclamation point on his series with People of the Sun.” -Shawn Peters, author of The Unforgettable Logan Foster

“People of the Sun is an amazing read that keeps you on the edge of your seat! There are twists that you don’t see coming and surprise you every time. The best part, however, is John and Sarah’s love for each other and how they never give up!” -Emmie Enchanted, Kid Blogger
