“In The Chainbreakers, Julian Randall turns one of the most painful eras of Black history into a breathtaking, magical saga. Readers of all ages will find a place in their hearts for Violet Moon and her ragtag found family in this moving tale that’s as poetic as it is swashbuckling.” — New York Times Bestselling Author, Roseanne A. Brown

“Fusing a vibrant, self-assured narrative voice; subtly wrought intergenerational concerns; and rich, Dominican-inspired worldbuilding, Randall creates an undeniable page-turner.”
— Publishers Weekly (Starred Review)

“Dominican lore brings fresh perspective to a thrilling tale.”
— Kirkus Reviews
