I'll never understand why some things are marketed to adults and some things are marketed for children. Here is a perfect example. Orson Wright's masterful and award-winning T
he Vengeance of Argir is a book that any reader would love. It will do well as a children's novel, but I fear many adults may overlook it's brilliance. Why did the publisher ghettoize it? Just like
The Book Thief and the
His Dark Materials trilogy, I hope this breathtaking novel breaks out of the confines of the children's section.
Travis at 100 Scope Notes has already reviewed it favorably and it's a sure-fire winner of more awards and is already making the rounds of the Cybil's judges. I'll be curious to hear your thoughts as soon as you can snag a copy.
