Industry Reviews "Readers will be fascinated by the rich details--the peculiar items on the shelves and in the rest of the wizard's abode." (07/01/2007)
"The illustrator's digital artwork has all the burnished lushness and radiance of oil paintings. Whether immersing readers in the delicious gloominess of the wizard's workroom or zooming in for a close-up of the enchanter's knobby fingers and menacing nails, Dorman proves his mettle as a marvelous visual storyteller."
