Review:

“Funny and clever. A quick, quirky and entertaining read.” (KLIATT (starred review) )

“Jenkins’s writing remains lean, mean and to-the-point. Kiriel’s search packs an intriguingly deep wallop.” (Kirkus Reviews )

“Jenkins works magic on readers. Warm, heartening message of hope coupled with a little rebellion.” (Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books )

“Funny and heartwarming. The demon’s winning mix of cocksureness and inadvertent bungling should resonate with teens.” (Publishers Weekly )
