[Select praise for The Mirror People]: ★ 2024 Moonbeam Award Winner (Best Pre-Teen Mystery) ""The Mirror People reads like a chill wind at your back, keeping pages turning swiftly. I loved how the story combines the Gothic with the Modern in the most strangely creepy ways. The tightly plotted twists are sure to have you questioning what you see in the shadows. Don’t be surprised if you start jumping at the sight of your own reflection…or of the wide-eyed figure standing right behind you!"" —#1 New York Times Bestselling author Dan Poblocki “Kyle Sullivan mixes the paranormal with his gift for engaging young minds as only he can do.” —Jim Harold, Host of The Paranormal Podcast and Jim Harold's Campfire [Select praise for previous middle-grade books by Kyle Sullivan]: [Bigfoot vs. Aliens (Hazyscapes #1)]: ★ 2024 Nautilus Book Award Winner (Best SciFi/Fantasy) ★ 2024 Independent Publisher Book Award Winner ★ 2024 Indie Book Award Finalist (Best Science Fiction) ★ 2023 Northern Lights Book Award Winner ★ 2023 Moonbeam Award Winner (Best Pre-Teen Fantasy) “A riveting fantasy novel.” —Foreword Reviews [Hobgoblin and the Seven Stinkers of Rancidia]: ★ A Kirkus Reviews Best Book of 2019 ★ A Foreword INDIES Book of the Year Award Winner (2019) ★ ""Readers will giggle through every page of this smart political satire.” —Kirkus Reviews, starred review “Engages hard-to-please tween readers with imaginative adventure, fun illustrations and silly fart references…Read it together at bedtime to share laughter and a positive message of empathy and inclusivity.” —The Seattle Times “A hilarious second coming of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs…This story is like nothing you’ve ever read before…You’ll instantly fart with glee.” —Literary Features Syndicate [Zombie, Or Not to Be]: ★ A Foreword INDIES Book of the Year Award Finalist (2020) ★ Independent Publisher Book Award Winner (2021) ""A standing ovation for undead environmentalist theater."" —Kirkus Reviews ”Highly recommended...A pandemic, environmental issues, and characters who do not believe in science are themes all too suitable for students seeking contemporary fiction to write about for class...Middle graders hungry for the next zombie book will devour this one.” —School Library Journal ""Readers will chortle at the gross details, the Beetlejuice-style illustrations, and...the parodic twists."" —Booklist [Krampus Confidential]: ★ Independent Publisher Book Award Winner (2023) “This mystery is a page-turner.” —School Library Journal “Tinseltown is packed with the usual (and unusual) suspects of Christmas lore, and the culprit could be anyone.
