Reviews

"These are the best sorts of stories: patient, inventive, expansive, quietly subversive and devilishly sly. Each one invites the reader to listen, to learn, to peek under the mask of the world, to be astonished. I love Kritzer's work, and I always will." --Kelly Barnhill, Newbery Medalist

"Kritzer's sharp, bittersweet memorable stories will stay with you long after you close the book." --Jo Walton, author of Among Others
