Book Synopsis
Eight gleefully macabre vignettes by an award- winning comics artist, as delightful as they are deadly.

Trade Review
"Landis Blair’s work is a fusion of Grand Guignol horror and delicately layered poignancy that can’t be found elsewhere. He is a singular morbid talent." -- Caitlin Doughty
"The Envious Siblings is a devilishly funny debut from Blair. His vigorous flair for the horrific unknown ripples throughout the comic in a tense, subdued manner. What radiates out of the comic most is Blair’s Gothic-tinged sense of wit, which easily comes through from both the rhymes and the art." -- Starburst
"The line drawings are... dark and ghoulish and mischievous and will no doubt enthral adults and maybe even some children." -- The Art Newspaper
"The Envious Siblings won’t be to every young person’s taste, but those of a darker bent may find it grotesquely appealing, like a jack-o’-lantern that’s just started to rot." -- Children's Books 2019 - Financial Times
