The Curse of the Wendigo is certain to be popular with fans of The
Monstrumologist (S & S, 2009), and the horror genre in
general.--School Library Journal
* Lush prose, devilish characterizations, and more honest emotion
than any book involving copious de-facings (yes, you read that
right) ought to have...Yancey has written both books in the
Monstrumologist series as if they were the last, going for broke
and playing for keeps, no matter who or what ends up on the
chopping block. This is Warthrop's The Hound of the Baskervilles;
if we hold our breath, maybe part 3 will come faster.
--Booklist, starred review
* The chilling sequel to Yancey's Printz Honor book, The
Monstrumologist, is as fast-paced, elegant, and, yes, gruesome as
its predecessor.--Publishers Weekly, starred review
A page-turner of an historical horror that will simultaneously
thrill readers and make them sick to their stomachs.--Kirkus
Reviews
Fans of Rick Yancey's first book in this series, Printz Honor Award
winner The Monstrumologist will not be disappointed by this sequel.
Yancey maintains his excellent, literary fiction style...Once
again, Yancey skillfully weaves a tale that touches readers at a
visceral level and will linger long in the imagination.--VOYA
The first-person narrative is brooding and atmospheric, conveying
just the right sense of mystery and horror.--The Horn Book
