And now they are to be step-sister and brother. Even worse, something very weird is happening to the worms Rory keeps as pets. But what happens when the Slobberers escape during the wedding is only the beginning.

    "This is not a novel about prejudice or race relations or brotherhood. It is about parents and children, young people and older people, about love and failure, loss and discovery, coming to terms with ourselves and others. Edgar Allan is a work of art." —The New York Times• An American Library Association (ALA) Notable Book• An Outstanding Book of the Year, The New York Times
