Jake Burnett grew up on four continents and now lives in North Carolina with his wife, a one-eyed cat, and two very wiggly dogs. His first novel, The Chaos Court, was one of Kirkus Reviews Best Books of 2020.
Burnett's fast-paced novel is imaginative, unique, and well
written. Readers who enjoy adventurous fantasies will appreciate
the echoes of Greek mythology and such literary classics as Lewis
Carroll's Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, L. Frank Baum's The
Wonderful Wizard of Oz and Madeleine L'Engle's A Wrinkle in Time.
This creative novel will boost readers' vocabulary and appeal to
those looking for a quirky, fun adventure.
-School Library Journal
Burnett harbors a deep love for the absurd, using his imaginative
skills to the hilt, as did L. Frank Baum in The Wonderful Wizard of
Oz... unexpected cleverness continues to gush like a geyser as the
tale proceeds... A bonkers fantasy that retains a sweetly human
center.
-Kirkus Reviews
