About The Book

The penultimate volume in the New York Times bestselling Courtney Crumrin series is now available in paperback!

Courtney Crumrin has never shied away from making sure justice is served, but now it will cost her dearly. On the run from the Coven with her former teacher Calpurnia, Courtney quickly learns just how sinister the witches and warlocks of Hillsborough can be—but she never thought she'd see the day when Uncle Aloysius turned on her as well. And it's much harder to fight a battle when the only family you care about stands against you. Courtney's only salvation lies in the Twilight Kingdom, where witches and wizards dare not enter. But Aloysius is no ordinary wizard, and he won't give up on his niece so easily... even if it means going to war with the night creatures.

About The Author

Ted Naifeh first appeared in the independent comics scene in 1999 as the artist for Gloomcookie, the goth romance comic he co-created with Serena Valentino for SLG Publishing. After a successful run, Ted decided to strike out on his own, writing and drawing Courtney Crumrin and the Night Things, a spooky children’s fantasy series about a grumpy little girl and her adventures with her Warlock uncle. Nominated for an Eisner Award for Best Limited Series, Courtney Crumrin’s success paved the way for Polly and the Pirates, another children’s book, this time about a prim and proper girl kidnapped by pirates convinced she was the daughter of their long-lost queen. Over the next few years, Ted wrote four volumes of Courtney Crumrin, plus a spin-off book about her uncle. He also co-created How Loathsome with Tristan Crane, and illustrated two volumes of the video game tie-in comic Death Junior with screenwriter Gary Whitta. More recently, he illustrated The Good Neighbors, a three volume graphic novel series written by New York Times best-selling author Holly Black, published by Scholastic. In 2011, Ted wrote the sequel to Polly and the Pirates, and illustrated several Batman short stories for DC Comics. In 2012, to celebrate the tenth anniversary of Courtney Crumrin, he wrote and illustrated the final two volumes of the series. Currently, you can find Ted everywhere: from the pages of Batman ‘66 to his newest original series for adults, Night’s Dominion. Ted lives in San Francisco, California, because he likes dreary weather.
