Book Reviews
(Starred review.) [T]houghtful and disconcertingly memorable.... Maguire frequently pulls back from the action to offer a larger perspective as characters struggle to discover who and what they are—and, most importantly, why they are.... [A]a feast for the mind.

What happened above after Alice fell down the rabbit hole into Wonderland?... [C]lever and philosophical, on the Lewis Carroll classic. [Some] readers may find the slow build up of action and wrenching jumps between the two disconnected settings, one in stilted 19th-century language and the other in the nonsense of Wonderland, a bit too high a barrier to keep them reading. —Nancy H. Fontaine, Norwich P.L., VT
Library Journal
(Starred review.) Continuing his tradition of rewriting fairy tales with an arch eye and offbeat point of view, Maguire turns his attention to Lewis Carroll and Alice's Adventures in Wonderland.... A brilliant and nicely off-kilter reading of the children's classic, retrofitted for grown-ups—and a lot of fun.
