Industry Reviews

"Fisher's debut's an imaginative, not-too-dark urban fantasy. . . . Fans of spooky fiction and comics will be in a dark and happy place." - KIRKUS REVIEWS "This scary, but not too scary, horror novel has excellent characters; a well-developed plot; and clear, well-paced writing. . . . A fun supplement to the classic tale ["The Monkey's Paw"], but it will more likely find a home with horror-fiction lovers, filling the gap between R. L. Stine's Goosebumps and Darren Shan's The Demonata series." - SCHOOL LIBRARY JOURNAL "Straddling the genres of horror, low fantasy, and action thriller, with slight nods to The Twilight Zone and E. Nesbit, this book holds high appeal for kids like Morton who are fascinated with the creepy and the weird, and the strong characterization, authentic conflict within a family reeling from the loss of a mother, and Morton's impressive inner strength while under pressure add dimension. . . . Give this one to kids looking for something a step up from Goosebumps." - BCCB "A Lovecraft-lite debut full of monster-fighting action and a dark-magic mystery." - BOOKLIST
