"Grimoire Noir is beautiful. So dark and magical and moving." —Lev Grossman, New York Times bestselling author of The Magicians
"Featuring a grayscale palette with striking daubs of color, the art is wonderfully atmospheric. Characters are impeccably styled with a keen sartorial eye...brooding gothic fare brimming with style. "—Kirkus
"An unusual, tense, and deeply atmospheric world full of stylish characters and forbidding places." —Publishers Weekly
"Murky scenes in black, gray, and subtle touches of luminous color add to the noir mood, while floating curlicues and dusky shadows give it an unmistakable macabre-fantasy feel." —Booklist
"This would be an interesting step up for fans of Ostertag’s The Witch Boy or a treat for graphic novel readers seeking a dark supernatural mystery." —The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books
