Jeff Victor is a very smart artist who knows how to work with fine art effects to bring both life and sophistication to his already emotive panels. His artwork here could almost tell the entire story on its own: that the accompanying dialog is so fresh, witty and heartfelt only makes this debut graphic novel feel that much more accomplished. The Frumious Consortium

What if you found a genie’s magic lamp, and rubbed it only to discover that YOU were the genie?

Avery McLean is just your normal ten-year-old tomboy, helping her dad run a tiny, run-down gas station in the middle of the desert. With no friends and no fun to be had, Avery has been teaching herself to do card tricks to entertain passing motorists, figuring that her lonely life could use a little magic. Little does she know how much magic is about to drop right in her lap! By releasing the power hidden within a dusty old lamp, Avery and her new companion Gribblet are thrust into a stunning supernatural world, to discover her own power, save her family, and find answers to questions that will change her life forever. Jeff Victor’s debut graphic novel is a captivating adventure for fans of Bone, Amulet, and 5 Worlds. -- a 152-page full-color softcover graphic novel with 3” French flaps (7" x 9.5")
