Deadendia continues to deliver emotionally-packed fun in the second instalment of this trilogy. With the Dead End attraction torn down and turned into a hotel for interplanar travel, Norma, Barney and Courtney navigate relationship drama, coming out, and a brewing war between the angels and the demons. Steele's incredible illustrations continue to inspire and I found myself unable to rest until I had read the entire thing. Excited to see what the upcoming Definitive Edition of this book will look like!
