Overview

The League of Seven is the first book in an action-packed, steampunk series by the acclaimed author of Samurai Shortstop, Alan Gratz.


In an alternate 1875 America electricity is forbidden, Native Americans and Yankees are united, and eldritch evil lurks in the shadows. Young Archie Dent knows there really are monsters in the world. His parents are members of the Septemberist Society, whose job it is to protect humanity from hideous giants called the Mangleborn. Trapped in underground prisons for a thousand years, the giant monsters have been all but forgotten--but now they are rising again as the steam-driven America of 1875 rediscovers electricity, the lifeblood of the Mangleborn. When his parents and the rest of the Septemberists are brainwashed by one of the evil creatures, Archie must assemble a team of seven young heroes to save the world.

  • It's Archie Dent's duty to assemble a mythical league of heroes

    Violet H. - 1 year 1 month ago

    Not only is Alan Gratz's worldbuilding impeccably interesting - an alternate America where electricity is banned and eldritch horrors lurk in the shadows - but his characters are uniquely relatable. Each new addition to Archie Dent's team feels real, each a kid with their own complex emotions and moral codes. Seeing how these codes and emotions clash, and how they form a strong team despite that conflict, makes this book a hair-raising and heart-warming read all wrapped into one.
