Description
From a best-selling author: Miss Peregrine meets The Graveyard Book in this middle-grade adventure about rival siblings running a monster mortuary.
Thirteen-year-old Molly doesn't know how she got the short end of the stick - being raised by her neglectful father - while Dustin, the older brother she's never met, got their mother and the keys to the family estate. But now the siblings are both orphaned, she's come home for her inheritance, and if Dustin won't welcome her into the family business, then she'll happily take her half in cash.
There's just one problem: The family business is a mortuary for monsters, and Molly's not sure she's ready to deal with mysterious doors, talking wolves, a rogue devourer of magic, and a secret cemetery. It's going to take all of Dustin's stuffy supernatural knowledge and Molly's most heroic cosplay (plus a little help from non-human friends) for the siblings to figure it out and save the day...if only they can get along for five minutes.
Best-selling author Chuck Wendig's middle-grade debut is equal parts spooky, funny, and heartfelt - perfect for Halloween and year-round enjoyment!
Commentaires
"A clever, heartwarming tale of funerary rites, ghosts, and the undying power of family." (Holly Black, Newbery Honor-winning author of Doll Bones and The Cruel Prince)
"A one-of-a-kind delight - mysterious, exciting, inventive, sometimes scary, and always funny, Dust & Grim reads like a rollicking ghosts and monsters story, which it is. But just as important, it’s a compelling and tender story about family. Sibling duo Molly and Dustin will find their way into readers’ hearts as surely as they find their way into each other’s." (Trenton Lee Stewart, best-selling author of The Mysterious Benedict Society)
"Sucks you in with a wise-cracking zaniness that soon spirals into a delightful rampaging chaos of swarming vampires, thorny wolves, walking trees, and eldritch horrors. And yet even as the dangers for Molly and Dustin increase and the wise-cracks keep flying, the importance of family both lost and found grounds their story with a profound sense of heart." (Paolo Bacigalupi, best-selling author of The Windup Girl, Ship Breaker, and Zombie Baseball Beatdown)
