5.0 out of 5 stars Because kids being eaten by monsters is COOL, dagnit., 8 April 2003
Ah, Courtney Crumrin. The one comic out there that makes me recall my childhood- and by childhood, I mean all the books I read as a child by Robin Jarvis, Roald Dahl et al which involved humans being killed, horrific beasties, massive amounts of gothic darkness and the occassional primordial god.

Courtney Crumrin is a pre-teen outcast with massive amounts of cynicism, loathing for her parents & schoolmates, and a keen interest in black magic- basically, the Anti-Potter. And she makes for a brilliant protaganist, who stands up for our rights to be loners & weirdos, and tears down the artifical, social-climbing crapness of the children's world with extreme prejudice. And, of course, there's the wonderfully designed Night Things, ranging from aloof sentient cats to the Cockney-accented child eating Butterworm. It's a perfect all-ages book, excepting the once-a-chapter use of the phrase "Oh bugger".

But don't let the swearing stop you buying this, coz your kids know worse ones _anyway_. And besides, what anti-social little bugger wouldn't want a protaganist who, in her own words, is "rude, bad-tempered and basically I don't like people"?

5.0 out of 5 stars scary and cute, 10 April 2003
By A Customer
I loved this book. It's the story of Courtney Crumrin and how she goes to live with her Uncle, this book is about Courtney adjusting to life in her new neighbourhood and school and also dealing with her heritage as a mystic and witch. It's amazing how you get just as concerned about the character when she is in a sticky situation at school as when she's dealing with goblins and monsters. The art is excellent a cute cartoony style but one which portrays horror as well.

Well worth buying.
