NAMED A BEST GRAPHIC NOVEL OF THE YEAR BY THE WASHINGTON POST
NAMED A BOOK WE LOVED BY NPR
The first volume in a new graphic novel horror trilogy from Marjorie
Liu and Sana Takeda--the creative team behind the New York Times
bestselling series Monstress
Chinese American twins, Milly and Billy, are having a tough time. On top
of the multiple failures in their personal and professional lives,
they're struggling to keep their restaurant afloat. Luckily their
parents, Ipo and Keon, are in town for their annual visit. Having
immigrated from Hong Kong before the twins were born, Ipo and Keon have
supported their children through thick and thin and are ready to lend a
hand--but they're starting to wonder, has their support made Milly and
Billy incapable of standing on their own?
When Ipo forces them to help her clean up the house next door--a hellish
and run-down ruin that was the scene of a grisly murder--the twins are
in for a nasty surprise. A night of terror, gore, and supernatural
mayhem reveals that there is much more to Ipo and her children than
meets the eye.
Eisner Award-winning and bestselling author Marjorie Liu and illustrator
Sana Takeda have crafted a wild and wicked tale that will leave readers
hungry for more. She Eats the Night is the perfect start to The Night
Eaters trilogy, which is a combination of Monsters by Barry
Windsor-Smith and Crazy Rich Asians by Kevin Kwan.
