Critics Review

Devilishly funny - Dante N. Ferno is a winner! * Tom Vaughan, author of Hercules: The Diary of a (Sort Of) Hero on Dante N. Ferno is NOT a Loser *
It’s a fast paced, funny adventure for readers aged 7+. Highly recommended. * Tom Tolkein, School Reading List - Best Children’s Books for Summer 2025 on Dante N. Ferno is NOT a Loser *
If you’re looking for madcap adventures to lure your reluctant readers out of comic books and into chapter books, then this anarchic, devilishly funny and highly illustrated new series from cartoonist and debut children’s author Brian Gordon is the picture perfect choice. * Pam Norfolk, Lancashire Post on Dante N. Ferno is NOT a Loser *
With a daft plot and larger-than-life characters, this hilarious chapter book also explores some serious issues, such as dealing with bullies, developing resilience, and making friends. * Booktrust on Dante N. Ferno is NOT a Loser *
An entertaining, afterlife-themed addition to the pantheon of insecure, goofy tweens who could use a good friend * Kirkus on Dante N. Ferno is NOT a Loser *
devilishly funny adventure…highly illustrated and fast-paced, making it a picture-perfect choice for building confidence. Parents will treasure the gently spun lessons on emotional growth and children will laugh at Dante’s outrageous misfortunes * Minipreneur *
The “wimpy” in Wimpy Kid is key. It hints at a self-awareness that readers respect. The main character of Gordon’s new illustrated novel series has self-awareness in spades. * New York Times, 11 Books for Children Who Love the Wimpy Kid Series *

About The Author

Brian Gordon

Brian Gordon decided when he was six that he was going to be a cartoonist when he grew up. He spent the rest of his childhood drawing, writing funny stories, and running away from bullies who didn’t like his drawings or his stories.

Despite being told by his teachers that cartooning wasn’t a ‘real job’, he’s happy to have proved them wrong and has been drawing silly things for a living ever since. He spent the first half of his career making greeting cards, but for over a decade, he’s been writing Fowl Language, a webcomic read by millions around the world, about the ups and downs of parenting four kids. Now, he’s also writing stories for kids—Dante N. Ferno is his debut series for kids.

He has a wife named Cat and a dog named Pickles, who is very soft and loves getting his ears scratched.
