Publisher Review

PRAISE FOR UNFAIRIES: ‘I loved everything about this book. It’s just SO funny and it looks brilliant. Love the energy, love the palette, love the textures love the characterisation . . . Move over Tinkerbell, there’s a new favourite fairy in town.’ * Rob Biddulph, bestselling author of Draw With Rob and Peanut Jones * You’ll be wowed when you step into the bustling, offbeat, technicolour Unfairies universe. It’s brimming with wacky and lovable beasts, slugs, insects and … fairies. Unfairies is anarchy at its best – Huw Aaron somehow makes making comics look effortless (they aren’t). There isn’t a single stiffly drawn or ugly mark in this book. Unfairies shows a real mastery of the form with spreads skilfully balanced between snappy, fast-moving panel sequences and big splash pages or double paged cross section maps that you could get lost in for hours. The sound effects and action bubbles and lettering are so nicely done. The dialogue is hilarious, the story is pacy and the illustrations are bursting with energy. Unfairies is enviably bonkers and I loved it. * Sheena Dempsey, bestselling author of Pablo and Splash * Unfairies is a wild, witty adventure. Pip and their scrappy crew of fairy misfits set off on an epic (and totally ridiculous) quest – packed with box fights, bug battles, and bonkers twists at every turn. The artwork is vibrant, alive, detailed in all the right places, and still bursting with energy and motion. Hilarious, irreverent, and endlessly charming – Unfairies is everything you want in a graphic novel and more. We loved every page. * Dan & Jason, creators of Barb the Last Berzerker and Blue, Barry & Pancakes * Great fun, Pip is the hero we need! * Bobby Joseph, UK Comics Laureate 2023-2025 * Fantastic, frantic, fairy fun. The artwork is gorgeous – every page dripping in wonderful detail, and the genuinely hilarious story moves at such a pace it’ll leave you breathless. * Jamie Littler, bestselling author of Frostheart *
