Great book, wouldn't you agree Mr. Vandamarrrrr? I, would, Mr. Croup. Some unforgettable characters. However the story could have used a little more help.

Amazing book. A must read for anyone who enjoys Alice In Wonderland type fantasy.

Just as enjoyable a read as Stardust but more urban and gritty.
