"A deliciously dark Phantom Tollbooth-like journey told through alens of broken humanity and a deconstruction of the role-playing game'sroots. I am entranced."-Matthew Mercer,Critical Role"GILLEN subverts high fantasy adventure tropes with an infusion of creepyhorror,resulting in an exploration of arrested adolescence and the effects ofchildhood trauma made truly haunting by Hans'realistic illustrations andCowles'gloomy color palette." 9;Library Journal"Makes for a heady combination of fascinating worldbuilding,compellingly broken characters tearing each other apart (sometimes emotionally,sometimes literally),and vivid,striking artwork."-io9/Gizmodo
