Quotes
The Warriors meets Mad Max meets My Gal Friday, Tomorrow’s Children is a madcap romp across a nearly ruined New York, a satirical high fantasy epic condensed to 300 pages, with enough bloodletting, betrayal and barbed witticisms to satisfy the most sanguinary readers.

– Daniel P.

-Eleanor, Angry Robot
