Praise for Steve Sheinkin

“In this gripping account, Newberry Honor Book author and Sibert medalist Sheinkin offers an intense narrative that captures the terrifying tensions of the Cold War.” – Booklist, starred review on FALLOUT. 

“This is edge-of-the-seat material that will resonate with YAs who clamor for true spy stories, and it will undoubtedly engross a cross-market audience of adults who dozed through the World War II unit in high school.” – BCCB, starred on Bomb.
