Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

"Readers with a taste for sly humor, grim events, and (literally) undying loyalty will gobble this up."--Kirkus Reviews "10/1/17 "

"Gayton...spices his sprawling narrative with puns, invented words, fairy tale allusions, and tongue-in-cheek footnotes that make for funny and high-energy reading. Yet this fantasy remains firmly grounded in meaningful messages about identity, loyalty, and friendship."--Publisher's Weekly "October 2017 "

"Puns, wordplay, and footnotes keep readers on their toes. ..Funny and a little bit creepy, this is a solid addition to any upper elementary or middle grade collection."--School Library Journal "November 2017 "

"Terry Pratchett meets Roald Dahl in this textured, tongue-in-cheek fairy tale....the twists and turns will keep the pages flipping. Kids who love riotous fantasy will get a kick out of this."
--Booklist "November 21, 2017 "

Reseña del editor:

A young alchemist and a giant cat stage a meow-tiny to take down an evil czar in this charming middle grade adventure.

Something bad has happened to Prince Alexander, the only heir to the mighty Petrossian Empire.

Something worse than kidnapping.

Something worse than murder.

Somehow, the Prince has been miraculously transformed into a fluffy kitten—and a large one, at that. Giant, in fact. Dinosaur-sized.

Why has this terrible catastrophe happened? Who are the boy and girl brewing secret potions down in the palace kitchens? And how are they possibly going to avoid getting their heads chopped off?
