Readers won’t need to have read Snotty Saves the Day to fall in love with Lily the Silent, which takes place next in the history of Arcadia, telling the story of the country’s first queen, Lily the Silent, through the eyes of her daughter Sophia the Wise. . . . .with the additions of a legend, an Arcadian fairy tale, and the story of how the book came to Exterminating Angel Press. With its winning female protagonists, accessible storyline, fantastical settings, Arthur Rackham-like illustrations, and powerful message—Lily the Silent should inspire readers to (re)discover the first book in the series and seek out more from the land of Arcadia in the enhanced eBooks and apps. Snotty Saves the Day was embraced as a crossover title, prompting critics and booksellers to ask readers to “imagine Lewis Carroll with footnotes by Jonathan Swift” while others made comparisons to Nicholson Baker, the Spiderwick Chronicles, Susanna Clark’s Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell, Homer, C.S. Lewis, the New Testament, Descartes, L. Frank Baum, Doris Lessing, George Orwell, and Joseph Campbell. This truly is a series that can be read with pleasure by ages 12 and up . . . all the way up! |
