Ghoulish Song by William Alexander
A brave girl flees a ghoul while trying to save her town in this lively, fantastical and fast-paced companion to William Alexander's National Book Award winning debut, Goblin Secrets. 'Subtle, tricky, funny, beautiful. More, please, William Alexander!' Ursula K. Le Guin
A vertiginous adventure shot through with humour in this clever tale* Wall Street Journal *
William Alexander is a wonderful talent whose breadth of vision and sense of theatricality, sly wit, and wicked whimsy have charmed and enthralled me since I first set eyes on his work. -- Catherynne M. Valente
Ghoulish Song is William Alexander's second book set in the city of Zombay, and this fantastical port city - noisy and wafting with the smell of fresh bread - has secured its place on my map of fantastical places. Alexander paints a picture so vivid, readers can't help but cheer on his protagonist as she fights for her home. -- Emily Nordling * Tor.com *
