THE BALLAD OF PERILOUS GRAVES

SFX UK|July 2022

Some stories are just too big for a single book to contain. When an author has effectively invented a whole world (or substantially reworked an existing one), you can hardly blame them for wanting to share as much of it as they can.

Author Alex Jennings

Publisher Orbit Books

Alex Jennings’s debut is a vibrant, fantastical love letter to New Orleans: its community, its history and above all its musical soul. In this alternate “Nola”, there are zombies, sky trolleys (air trams), and a travelling jazz cafe that appears only for artists. Graffiti drifts off walls, and a musician spirit called Doctor Professor materialises at random to launch impromptu dance parties. When nine songs from Doctor Professor’s repertoire are stolen, schoolkids Perilous (Perry) Graves and his sister Brendy find themselves on the front line of a magical war to save the city.
