Praise for Looking Glass
“Mesmerizing…These somber, occasionally disturbing novellas offer a
mature take on the children’s story but balance the horrors of the
City with hope. Henry’s fans will be happy to return to this world,
but readers need not be familiar with earlier installments to
appreciate this twisted take on Lewis Carroll’s classic
tale.”—Publishers Weekly
"Fans will delight in discovering the unknown family backgrounds
and future fate of Alice and her wild and bloody
Hatcher."--Booklist (starred review)
Praise for the Chronicles of Alice
"Alice's ongoing struggle is to distinguish reality from illusion,
and Henry excels in mingling the two for the reader as well as her
characters."—Publishers Weekly (starred review)
"Henry continues to shine as she expands upon the vision Lewis
Carroll first dreamed, adding her own voice and imagination to this
timeless classic." —RT Book Reviews
“Careful, this white rabbit will lead you on a psychotic journey
through the bowels of magic and madness. I, for one, thoroughly
enjoyed the ride.”—Brom, author of The Child Thief
“I loved falling down the rabbit hole with this dark, gritty tale.
A unique spin on a classic and one wild ride!”—Gena
Showalter, New York Times bestselling author
of Alice in Zombieland
“A dark, delightfully disturbing fall down a rabbit hole of madness
and mystery. This is not your mamma’s Alice…If you’re looking for a
book that will make you feel like you were just on a bender with
the blue caterpillar, I highly recommend Alice.”—R.S. Belcher,
author of Nightwise
"Christina Henry’s Alice takes the darker elements of
Lewis Carroll’s original, amplifies Tim Burton’s cinematic
reimagining of the story, and adds a layer of grotesquery from her
own alarmingly fecund imagination to produce a novel that reads
like a Jacobean revenge drama crossed with a slasher movie."—The
Guardian (UK)
“A horrifying fantasy that will have you reexamining your love for
this childhood favorite. Smooth velvety prose blends well with the
deliciously complex characters and interesting storyline…A world
that is nothing like Lewis Carroll ever imagined.”—RT Book
