The second book in the best-selling Joshua Files series by M.G. Harris, which has been translated into 17 languages.
Praise for Ice Shock:
- "One of the rare sequels that improve upon the original. Touches of science fiction and fantasy add flavor to the action and adventure, as do Borgesian allusions and a charming tale of two long-dead lovers. A good bet for the thrill-seeking middle school crowd." 5 June 2011, Kirkus Reviews*,*
- "An even more accomplished rollercoaster of a ride. No wonder Harris' Invisible City was the no. 1 debut of 2008. It wouldn't surprise us at Lovereading4kids if this second novel becomes one of the top titles of the year." Lovereading4kids
