[…] A wild ride.” –Kirkus Reviews”This quirky, heartwarming adventure by Steele (Pantheon) captures the awkwardness of early adulthood and the idiosyncrasies of power-hungry demons.

All that and bright, bold illustrations AND great writing? Total win. Sweet, funny, and enjoyably, delightfully weird.” –School Library Journal’s Teen Librarian Toolbox”Joyful and weird, Hamish Steele’s DeadEndia is a delight.
