They are totally legit, if that's what you're asking. I met Nadia at a conference, she's a kick! They have a lot of clients for being so new but they are making a lot of sales too.

Not really.
New agency but respected agents with prior experience.

Nadia Cornier was apparently a powerhouse agent at CMA at a very young age. Caren Johnson came from Peter Rubie's agency and is also a young agent with previous experience. Caren is currently reading my full manuscript.

Where's the chocolate?
I love, love, love Nadia. I interviewed her for Wild Child Publishing, during which she spoke about being an agent. Here's the link, if you're interested.

I've met Nadia and read her blog Agent Obscura.
I wish she took adult SF/F because I'd pitch her in a second, but she's more into YA fantasy. Grumble, grumble.

Rejected my manuscript (both Nadia and Lauren when she was on board) but very, very nice, helpful, and legit agency. Making big waves for a new agency.
Nothing but props for them.

Nadia has been my agent for a couple of months now, and so far she's been wonderful. For a relatively new agent, she has quite a few sales under her belt and an incredible knowledge of the YA market (which I write). I don't believe she's taking submissions right now.
Megan Atwood is a new agent at Firebrand-- I know she is actively seeking YA (you can see more on the Firebrand website). Good luck!

Nadia has represented me in the past. A true star.
