"I'm gonna tell you a story, and I'm gonna ask that you let me finish before you say anything.

Here's the deal-on midnight of January 1st, 2000, the world ended. But it wasn't technology that killed it- It was magic. Now, years later, the Earth has transformed. Magic works (sort of). People are happy (sort of). But this new world isn't stable, and unless Marguerite de Pruitt and her canine pal, Daisy, do something about it, it'll tilt into deadly chaos. Good thing they've been training their whole lives for this and are destined to succeed. Or so they think.

Ryan North and Erica Henderson, the bestselling masterminds behind Unbeatable Squirrel Girl, serve up a graphic novel that is equally laugh-out-loud adventure and emotional gut punch. A story about the search for truth, chosen family, and rebirth, the journey of Marguerite and Daisy seeks to ask one vital question- How far are you willing to go to save the world?

""Easily my favorite book of the year."" -Tillie Walden, Eisner Award-winning creator of Spinning
