A note for parents
The Gauntlet is an adventure fantasy that celebrates teamwork, cultural identity, and problem-solving as children navigate a dangerous magical game. The story includes some peril and tension as characters face obstacles and the threat of being trapped, but violence is not graphic or central to the plot. The protagonists are diverse and capable, making this engaging for middle-grade readers who enjoy puzzles and adventure.
