Reviews:

"In Sadie, Terrien [now Barnhart] presents readers with a strong, relatable female protagonist. She could have remained merely an important secondary character in the series--a curious Hermione Granger to Jason Lex's adventurous Harry Potter; instead, she's entrusted with the lead role here, and Terrien [Barnhart] makes sure that she plays it very well...A fresh installment with a realistic protagonist whom teens will want to follow into the realms of the paranormal." - Kirkus Reviews

“Author Wendy Terrien [now Wendy M. Barnhart] does a wonderful job of creating an empowered, capable female protagonist that adeptly holds her own in the male-dominated urban fantasy genre without having her overcompensate to do so.” - Colorado Book Review

“Wendy Terrien’s [now Barnhart] The Clan Calling presents a unique world with strong character relationships and a chilling underlying mystery.” - Foreword Reviews
