conversations.value: Grade 5&ndash;7&mdash;When Joe's four-year-old sister, Hannah, ruins his favorite magazine, he screams, "I wish you were dead!" That same night, an ambulance arrives at his house and Joe begins to dread that his hasty words are coming to pass. So when a girl named Katherine appears out of nowhere and offers him the chance to get Hannah back, Joe follows her into Asphodel, a realm between life and death that is locked in an ongoing war between two sister queens. The dreary, industrialized landscape is populated by deadly mechanical beasts and has a surreal aspect to it. Themes of war, propaganda, and profiteering are laced throughout this dark, intriguing Neil Gaiman-like fantasy that will have readers on the edge of their seats.&mdash;<I>Christi Voth, Parker Library, CO</I> <BR>Copyright &copy; Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc.
