LIBRARY JOURNAL REVIEW

Hi all,
DEATH'S APPRENTICE just received a great starred review in the Library Journal:

Grimm City sits above the Gates of Hell. As the Devil’s capital on Earth, it serves as a dark testimony to the presence of evil and the certainty of death. For Nathaniel, a 17-year-old apprentice to Death who can stop time long enough to free the souls of the dying from their bodies, Grimm City becomes a battleground in a war to defeat the Devil himself. Aided by two wounded souls, one cursed to
a half-life as a wraith, the other a giant whose total lack of fear makes him the consummate killer, Nathaniel will risk everything to save the life of a child with the potential to make the world a better place. Jeter (Infernal Devices) and first-time author Jones launch an ambitious series based on the entire canon of the Brothers Grimm.

­VERDICT: With bold storytelling, one-of-a-kind characters, and a flair for both the rhythm of fairy tales and the atmosphere of noir fiction, this dark fantasy deserves a wide audience.
