"LOVED THIS!! the art is gorgeous in this and the artist is a printmaker which is so cool! many of the stories had a creepy feel that I think most people expected to be more prominent in the rest of the series do I'm glad that this one had more creepy elements. I also really like Millard's notes as if he was really writing this."

"Unlike the last series I was reading (Tales of the New World) the fact that this 160 page book technically only took me a couple hours to read because of how good it was, simply shows how good it was. The tales that Mallard picked to go into the complied book he put together was brilliant! Now I get to go back and read him as a main character in A Book of Maps and I can't be more excited! Ransom Riggs has me hook, line, and sinker! Great book!"
