From the author of The 13 1/2 Lives of Captain Bluebear, an extraordinary new Zamonian adventure
Walter Moers was born in 1957 and is a writer, cartoonist, painter and sculptor. He is the creator of the comic strips The Little Asshole and Adolf and his novels include of the cult bestseller The 13 1/2 Lives of Captain Bluebear, The City of Dreaming Books and The Alchemaster's Apprentice. He lives in Hamburg.
It’s a fun read, packed with Moers’s typical wordplay, not to
mention his lovingly detailed illustrations…catnip for anyone with
a passion for languages
*Financial Times*
Moers fans will find everything they love: strange lifeforms, ample
digressions, learned allusions, a plethora of anagrams, and the
disturbing illustrations that are just as fine as they are
humorous

Yarnspinner is a popstar, the Michael Jackson of the printed word:
in short, a hero
*NDR [North German Broadcasting] Kultur*
Moers' creative mind is like J. K. Rowling's on Ecstasy
