The Good Neighbors

The Good Neighbors # 1: Kin
by Holly Black, illustrated by Ted Naifeh
Ages 12 and Up

From Holly Black, the co-creator of the enormously popular Spiderwick chronicles, comes an exciting new graphic novel for older readers. Rue Silver’s mother has disappeared . . . and her father has been arrested, suspected of killing her. But it’s not as straightforward as that. Because Rue is a faerie, like her mother was. And her father didn’t kill her mother — instead, he broke a promise to Rue’s faerie king grandfather, which caused Rue’s mother to be flung back to the faerie world. Now Rue must go to save her — and must also defeat a dark faerie that threatens our very mortal world. $16.99
