In A Sybil Society, Katherine Factor has made a new prosody, using urban slang, internet shorthand, and all the variations of American English in the 21st century, a system of new sound that refuses easy epiphany, offering instead a twisting language, mad speaker, and always original address to try to reach us, here, on what’s left of our earth.” —Ronaldo Wilson

\"Yes, I want to morph exploitive logics into deep fungal punster connectedness. Here comes A Sibyl Society. Rampaging, delicate, muscular, hilarious oracle, please tell us what to do!\"
—CATHERINE WAGNER, author of Of Course

\"Throughout this marvelously sparkly, quick-witted collection, sound leads the mind, mining rhyme, echo, pun, and any number of other verbal gymnastics. Tone leads, too; a rather sassy contemporaneity reigns—it's delightful and incredibly smart. If you're looking for the oracular, this Sybil is, per tradition, utterly cryptic, and yet her take on the future feels firm. And firmly rooted in the magic of language; as Factor says, \"Best to let the alphabet / sail in.\"

—COLE SWENSEN, author of Art in Time

Choose Your Own Adventure SPIES: Spy for Cleopatra by Katherine Factor takes YOU to ancient Egypt where you're faced with a mission larger than any ancient pyramid! You must save the Great Library of Alexandria, help at the Pharos Lighthouse, stop Caesar and his takeover, travel the Nile River, visit Rome, and explore the mysteries of Egyptian mythology and pyramids―all without becoming lost in time― or worse, mummified! 9-12 year old readers travel back in time to try and change history and must choose what happens next in the story.

Choose Your Own Adventure SPIES: Spy for Cleopatra is an interactive adventure book in which YOU decide what happens next.

It is circa 400 A.D. and you are a young person living in ancient Egypt. You are studying with the powerful philosopher and mathematician, Hypatia. Hypatia's formulas and inventions will change the course of history, but she can't let go of an event from the past. She needs you to travel back in time to the age of Cleopatra in order to change history so the Library of Alexandria can be saved from destruction by fire. Can you do what's needed to preserve the world's most important knowledge?

For readers who enjoyed other titles from the Choose Your Own Adventure SPIES series, including: Harry Houdini by Katherine Factor, James Armistead Lafayette by Kyandreia Jones, Mata Hari by Katherine Factor, and Noor Inayat Khan by Rana Tahir.

\"Magical adventures... Don’t let this book escape you!!\" - Jose C

\"Our 4th and 7th graders read this book together and had so much fun choosing the different paths while learning about Houdini!\" - Susannah F.

\"A hit at the library!\" - Karen, Walton Library

\"I used to love reading these books when my children would check them out from the library and this one, was no exception. I choose my first path through the book, based on what I’d want to do and then, I went back and reread the book a few times, choosing paths that were totally different. I was Harry Houdini, a magician with big dreams!\" - Live O.

\"I am a CHOOSE YOUR OWN ADVENTURE nerd. ...this continuation of them is excellent. It's super fun and I got to come back from the dead which I don't think ever happened during the older series.\" - Kales

\"Great combination of facts and adventure. Katherine Factor provides enough information to make you want to check out every one of the options. Partway through reading the book, I was already delving into online resources to read more about the facts she was weaving into the story. The spy series of Choose Your Own Adventure books reveals the intriguing history of undercover work. This was my second purchase from the series, and I’m eager to read more.\" - Sherry H.

Choose Your Own Adventure SPIES: Mata Hari by Katherine Factor takes YOU around the world and back in time. 9-12 year old readers will enact the early life of an actual historic spy, Margaretha Zelle, who was best known by her stage name, \"Mata Hari.” More than a dancer and spy, Mata Hari was an intelligent and courageous feminist; a resourceful survivor; and an adventurous spirit who lived dangerously.

Choose Your Own Adventure SPIES: Mata Hari is an interactive gamebook in which YOU decide what happens next.

The year is 1915, and YOU are young Margaretha Zelle, a world-famous dancer from the Netherlands. You have just arrived in Bali, Indonesia with your dance troupe when your best friend Althea goes missing. As a master of tongues and disguises, who better to save her? Your trek through the mysterious Balinese jungle might lead you to a top secret spy school, but if you leave now, you will miss your chance to audition for the performance of a lifetime.

\"Can I give 6 stars? [...] The author has the rare gift of being able to write something that works for both children and adults.\" - Daniel

\"My 9 and 10 year olds love it!\" - Brigit S.

\"...a brilliant, dramatic, and mischievous story... It's both hilarious and sad; and a real interactive adventure for kids and adults alike. Each decision you make in the story leads you to more absurdly real choices Margaretha has made in her own life, dreamy fantasies, spiritual journeys or historical truths, among other misadventures. It's so much fun and will have you jumping all over the book, reading as each choice you make blossoms or wilts. Katherine Factor is an inventive writer, crafting each piece of this puzzle with seamless detail. Her writing makes complex historical concepts easy to read and understand without misrepresenting them. She's also very witty and will have you chuckling all the way to the end-- then you start all over again! 10/10 absolutely recommend. Love it!\" - Austin B.

\"...intriguing and suspenseful.\" - TA

\"Choose Your Own Adventure is the perfect format for Mata Hari’s story. As I selected different pathways, I came to appreciate the complex set of twists in her life. The story will provide any reader with a fascinating opportunity to plunge into the World War 1 era.\" - Sherry H.

\"...amazing writing with beautiful prose. [...] Very clever!\" - Blanca M.

\"Brings me back to my childhood. I've been reading this at bedtime to my 6 year old. It's a little too advanced for her but she loves the ability to start and stop the story. So fun and I want to get another one in the series!\" - Anonymous
