"Drily funny . . . [and] jaw-droppingly gorgeous." —Publishers Weekly

"A visually exciting, cinematic atmosphere." —School Library Journal

"Dark Horse author/illustrator Ruth creates a sinister, yet familiar urban fantasy of parallel worlds . . . A refreshing fantasy in which not all is spelled out, with tantalizing hints at a sequel." —Kirkus

"Kids are always clamoring for scary books, but far too few deliver the goods in a satisfyingly creepy way. Fortunately, that's not the case with this eerie, atmospheric graphic novel," —Horn Book
