"Though definitely an underachiever when it comes to merit badges, Hilda's broad curiosity and willingness to stand up for the undergnome will make her a winner in most readers' eyes." --"Kirkus Reviews""[Hilda's world] is. . . a glorious, exciting if also rather menacing place--one children will be eager to enter. It's also visually arresting: exuberant and lively and faintly Miyazakian."--" New York Times""Hilda is the little girl. And this is her folk tale. And pretty much everything you need to know about how good this is is there on that absolutely gorgeously delightful cover. By the end of it, you'll have exactly the same smile as Hilda has."-- "Forbidden Planet""For adults ... Pearson's measured storytelling ... and detailed, imaginative artwork make Hilda and the Bird Parade an absolute treat to dive into. It's hard to imagine a better all-ages comic will be published this year."-- "Slate""very enjoyable, it's imaginative and fun for kids and adults too!"-- Renata Liewska, author of bestselling "The Quiet Book""With the Hildafolk series, Luke Pearson has carved himself a unique niche in the UK comics scene: a successful all-ages graphic novel series and it is much deserved. It is clearly the vision of one man and Hilda and the Black Hound is another thrilling and alluring instalment to Pearson's signature series." - "Broken Frontier""A riot of colour and animast magic"-- "The Times""A beautifully drawn (literally and figuratively) comic"--"Observer"""Hilda and the Black Hound" is filled with magic, in all senses of that word."--"Comics Bulletin"
