Hogarth's Reign of Terror — James Delaney

Hogarth's Reign of Terror is the first chapter in the four-part Hogarth Saga- a story in verse, written by James Delaney and illustrated by Christopher Madden. In this first story, 12-year old Hogarth builds a guillotine and begins dispatching all of the animals in his neighborhood-starting with the cats! Why? Not even Hogarth knows! All he knows is that he can't stop. This is a darkly humorous tale of evil...suitable for the whole family! If you like the dark humor found in the work of Edward Gorey, Tim Burton, or Showtime's Dexter, and the 1960's inspired look of Mad Men, then you're sure to like Hogarth's Reign of Terror, and the rest of the books in the Hogarth Saga!
