Between descriptions of thrilling extradimensional battles and inefficient celestial bureaucracy, Yee gives Genie just enough time to reflect on life's inevitable changes and the lengths she would go to protect the people she loves. A satisfying conclusion that packs a triple punch of action, humor, and heart."</p>
Kirkus Review
<p>**STARRED REVIEW**<br /> "The politics of the gods, criticism of Silicon Valley VC funding, college parties, and the uncertainty of the future on this plane of existence (plus all the others) are all explored with Genie’s hilarious and biting voice—especially when she’s at her most vulnerable. . . Readers who have been waiting for more Genie will not be disappointed. A worthy sequel."</p>

The fate of the heavens is at stake in this hilarious and highly-anticipated sequel to the The Epic Crush of Genie Lo
Genie Lo thought she was busy protecting the Bay Area from demons. But now, as a Heaven- appointed Guardian, even the well-being of demons is her responsibility—and their numbers are multiplying. Guanyin and Quentin are doing their best to help; but what they really need is for the Jade Emperor to get off his butt and deal with the crisis. While he’s AWOL, Genie nominates Guanyin to fill in his shoes, unaware that the role will go to the god who can defeat a mysterious threat to the supernatural order. Along with a few other contenders for the throne, including a former enemy, Genie and her friends embark on a Heavenly quest to an in-between world. But when faced with true danger, the group realizes that what will save the universe this time is sacrifice, not strength.
