New York Times Bestselling author Seanan McGuire presents a fresh take on the portal fantasy genre that blends Alice in Wonderland, The Magicians, and The Nightmare Before Christmas.
Seanan McGuire is the author of the October Daye urban fantasy
series, the InCryptid series, and several other works, both
standalone and in trilogies. She also writes darker fiction as Mira
Grant.
Seanan lives in a creaky old farmhouse in Northern California,
which she shares with her cats, a vast collection of creepy dolls,
and horror movies, and sufficient books to qualify her as a fire
hazard.
She was the winner of the 2010 John W Campbell Award for Best New
Writer, and in 2013 she became the first person ever to appear five
times on the same Hugo ballot.
"A jewel of a book that deserves to be shelved with Lewis Carroll's and C. S. Lewis' classics, even as it carves its own precocious space between them." --NPR "One of the most extraordinary stories I've ever read." --V. E. Schwab "This is a gorgeous story: sometimes mean, sometimes angry, and always exciting" --Cory Doctorow for BoingBoing "McGuire's lyrical prose makes this novella a rich experience." --Library Journal, starred review "This amazing fantasy pierces the shimmering veil of childhood imagination by reminding adult readers that their own doorways still exist deep in the chambers of their all-too-human hearts." --Booklist, starred review "This gothic charmer is a love letter to anyone who's ever felt out of place." --Publishers Weekly "This gothic novel is ideal for fantasy fans who have longed for a world of their own, as well as readers looking for books with diverse casts." --Bookish "Girl Interrupted meets Grimm's Fairy Tales. Let it in and it will touch your heart and open your mind." --Geek Syndicate "The broken doors are open, and you should come and enter. Every Heart a Doorway feels like home." --B&N Sci-Fi & Fantasy Blog
