Frederic S. Durbin was born in Illinois but has called Japan home since he moved there to teach ESL in 1988. This is his first novel for children.
"Durbin has created a world that, though mainly confined to a single mobile city, comes alive with fantastic creatures and a varied cast of supporting characters."--Booklist "Evocative imagery, an enthralling world, and a fully realized storyline that does not depend on future installments make this a standout among recent pre-YA fantasies."--Bulletin
