Advance Praise for Joe Golem and the Drowning City " Joe Golem and the Drowning City is that most marvelous kind of book-wholly original and yet completely accessible. Set in a unique world full of vivid and moving characters, it is gritty, mysterious, moving, and surprising. A brilliant combination of steampunk, fantasy, mystery, and adventure." -David Liss, author of The Twelfth Enchantment "A race against supernatural disaster through a haunting, dreamlike, and partially submerged New York City full of freaks, ghosts, and other lost souls, a story that grabs from the first page and doesn't let go." -Tad Williams " Joe Golem and the Drowning City is a warm, wicked, frantic tale of noble monsters and monstrous men. Not merely weird and not simply gorgeous, this supernatural steampunk fable is intimate and profound. It is dreadful and sublime." -Cherie Priest "Mignola's affectionate, Kirby-esque portraits compliment Golden's imaginative, YA-friendly prose." - Kirkus "The steampunk supernatural world the authors have created is unique and inventive….
