In this, the third and last of the Firefly stories, Firefly reminisces about Tiny Tims and her days at Captain Barneys Circus, their time spent dealing with the silent film greatsEadweard Muybridge, Thomas Edison, and the Lumire brothersand their adventures in the Cotswolds, in Victorian England. She recalls the delights of the early Hollywood film industry and Tims bravery during World War II, entertaining troops with the USO. And most importantly, Firefly recounts the role played by the two little detectives in defending Atlas and their Circus friends, when they were accused of the Cotswolds Ripper murders. This is a wistful and elegiac novel of a lost world.

In the 17th century, critics of John Milton observed that in Paradise Lost, Lucifer steals the show. The same thing holds true today. We begin with a fanciful tale of God and Satan. What follows is a collection of true stories about Societys roguesthe flimflam artists, whores, painted ladies, voodoo queens, and honky-tonk angels that inhabit the world. We depict the lives of a few favorites among these captivating, infuriating, (sometimes) horrifying, and larger than life frauds.

A 2015 Michael L. Printz Honor Book Winner of the 2014 Boston Globe-Horn Book Award for Fiction "Raunchy, bizarre, smart and compelling." --Rolling Stone “Grasshopper Jungle is simultaneously creepy and hilarious. Reminds me of Kurt Vonnegut’s in “Slaughterhouse Five,” in the best sense.” --New York Times Book Review In the small town of Ealing, Iowa, Austin and his best friend, Robby, have accidentally unleashed an unstoppable army. An army of horny, hungry, six-foot-tall praying mantises that only want to do two things. This is the truth. This is history. It’s the end of the world. And nobody knows anything about it. You know what I mean. Funny, intense, complex, and brave, Grasshopper Jungle brilliantly weaves together everything from testicle-dissolving genetically modified corn to the struggles of recession-era, small-town America in this groundbreaking coming-of-age stunner.
