Advance Praise

"Incredibly fun and ridiculously addictive. . . . For fans of literature (from classics to contemporary) this series is worth a read. . . . The Unwritten is a roller-coaster ride through a library, weaving famous authors and characters into a tale of mystery that is, at once, oddly familiar yet highly original." -USA TODAY.COM

"Fascinating. . . . With casual yet deeply informed writing from Mike Carey and accessible art from Peter Gross, The Unwritten sucks you in as a witty satire of heroic boy wizards . . . then blows your mind in the strange netherworld between truth and fiction. . . . One of the brainiest and most interesting comics of the year." --WIRED/Underwire
