Praise for this book

"A wonderfully queer, riveting, and heartfelt found family adventure that shows even the most average person can save the world...or end it."―Jayme Bean, author of Untouched


"Michaelson excels at rich and quirky characters, quick darts of humor, and playful, evocative imagination. There is a distinct Bradburian vibe-think Something Wicked This Way Comes-mixed with flavors of Gaiman and Poe. An indisputable five stars..."―Halo Scot, author of Edge of the Breach


"The plot is entertaining and action-packed. The mythical and fairytale threads that run throughout are enchanting."―Shane Staley, IndieMuse
