SEANAN McGUIRE is the author of the Hugo, Nebula, Alex, and Locus Award-winning Wayward Children series; the October Daye series; the InCryptid series; the delightfully dark Middlegame; and other works. She also writes comics for Marvel, darker fiction as Mira Grant, and younger fiction as A. Deborah Baker. Seanan lives in Seattle with her cats, a vast collection of creepy dolls, horror movies, and sufficient books to qualify her as a fire hazard. She won the 2010 John W. Campbell Award for Best New Writer, and in 2013 became the first person to appear five times on the same Hugo ballot.
[Where the Drowned Girls Go] highlights the horror of a world that requires you to deny what you know to be true because it doesn't quite fit, and it is a fantastic and tension-filled addition to the Wayward Children series. --Booklist Outstanding... Throughout Cora's harrowing adventures, McGuire's sense of whimsy never falters... The result will captivate both longtime Wayward Children fans and new readers. --Publishers Weekly starred review The message of owning one's truth instead of losing one's individuality will resonate. Highly recommended. --Library Journal Praise for the Wayward Children series A mini-masterpiece of portal fantasy that deserves to be shelved with Lewis Carroll's and C. S. Lewis' classics. --NPR, on Every Heart a Doorway Anyone who appreciates off-the-beaten-path adventures will be swept away. --Publishers Weekly, starred review, on Across the Green Grass Fields One of the most extraordinary stories I've ever read. --V. E. Schwab, on Every Heart a Doorway Seanan McGuire has long been one of the smartest writers around, and with this novella we can easily see that her heart is as big as her brain. --Charlaine Harris, on Every Heart a Doorway This is a gorgeous story: sometimes mean, sometimes angry, and always exciting. --Cory Doctorow for BoingBoing, on Every Heart a Doorway So mindblowingly good, it hurts. --io9, on Every Heart a Doorway A gorgeous standalone. The prose is emotional and moving and will speak to the hearts and minds of readers. --Kirkus, on Across the Green Grass Fields A great read for middle and high schoolers who enjoy themes of friendship and family, and a magical world of unicorns and centaurs. --School Library Journal, on Across the Green Grass Fields
