Praise for Remedial Magic: "A fairy tale with very sharp thorns."-- Booklist " Remedial Magic is an excellent series starter that combines the aesthetics of a classic fish-out-of-water story with the sensibilities of a book for and about adults."-- Bookpage Praise for Graveminder: "Plan ahead to read this one, because you won't be able to put it down! Haunting, captivating, brilliant!" -- Library Journal (starred review) "Marr serves up a quirky dark fantasy fashioned around themes of fate, free will--and zombies. Well-drawn characters and their dramatic interactions keep the tale loose and lively." -- Publishers Weekly "Marr does a great job with the mythology of her new world, her prose is as seamless as ever, and if the events described above weren't enough, she slips in a half-dozen or so other subplots that only enrich the main storyline that much more." -- The Magazine of Fantasy and Science Fiction "Melissa Marr has the rare talent of making deeply weird things seem perfectly normal, and making perfectly normal things seem deeply weird." -- io9 "No one builds worlds like Melissa Marr." --Charlaine Harris, New York Times bestselling author of the Sookie Stackhouse series "If anyone can put the goth in Southern Gothic, it's Melissa Marr.
