"Entertaining....The author mixes some relatively weighty existential themes'the search for self, faith, redemption'into his whimsical story line. [A] darkly enchanting saga" (Publishers Weekly), Engrossing...Maguire is a masterful storyteller with an uncanny flair for mixing political and personal while exploring what it means-and what it costs-to be accepted in a society., Much to savor, laugh at, and think about. . . . A page-turning fantasy and a timely political allegory., Maguire's work is melodic, symphonic and beautiful; it is dejected and biting and brave. . . . In fabulous details and self-mocking language, Maguire displays his gift for whimsical portrayals of the broken, the powerless, the hopeless, the bad., The minute you open A Lion Among Men, you're back in Maguire's exquisitely detailed environment, caught up once again in his geography, his characters, his worldview, touched anew by the loneliness that lurks in the heart of all things., This Oz goes far beyond L. Frank Baum's; it's as surreal as a dream, but as immaculately and impeccably detailed as history. Maguire's wizardlike grasp over every aspect of this reinvented land rivals classic literary landscapes like Tolkien's Middle Earth and Faulkner's Yoknapatawpha County., The third book in Maguire's Wicked Years is at once funny, charming, harrowing, bleak and incredibly beautiful., As usual, Maguire, a seasoned fabulist, populates his version of Oz with a cast of utterly fantastical characters who must face their own inner demons while tumult and uncertainty rages around them. An absolute must-read for fans of this ever-evolving dark fairy tale., A New York Times, San Francisco Chronicle, Boston Globe, Wall Street Journal, Denver Post, and USA Today bestseller -- "Maguire's work is melodic, symphonic and beautiful; it is dejected and biting and brave. . . .
