It's been a while since I've read a Cinda Williams Chima book, but I was absolutely obsessed with the Heir chronicles way back when. I'm pretty sure I've read The Warrior Heir like 5 or 6 times, at least. I loved it so much when I was in high school.

Chima does such a good job with world building in her books, while also casting them with characters that imediately draw you in. With the popularity of mythology for middle grade and teens, I think they'll be drawn to this one. There's magic, adventure, and a school where things aren't quite what they seem. Of course, it has to be the first in a new series, so I'm definitely going to have to read the other books!
