Kirkus reviews Kid vs. Squid
Kirkus Reviews liked Kid vs. Squid. They didn't eviscerate me at all.
Highlights:
"Drawing together a memorable supporting cast that ranges from a half-human Atlantean princess to a genial shark-man ("Howdy-do. Swim with us to shore or we'll eat your legs"), van Eekhout chivvies the plot along at a lively pace to a hold-your-breath climax and a deftly choreographed resolution. He also leaves the main characters around for sequels — which in this case, at least, could be a Good Thing."
