In Vol. 4, Royal Bodyguard Hatter Madigan’s search takes an unexpected detour when he travels ‘within’ guided by a mischievous and often maddening young girl named Nekko. Nekko’s origin is a Zen mystery, but her devotion to Hatter’s quest to find the lost Princess is unwavering. After Nekko kidnaps his Hat and leads him on a fearless chase across the rooftops of 1871 San Francisco, Hatter must acknowledge her as a teacher. It is written that when you are ready the teacher will appear, but if the teacher is a 12-year-old girl and you are a High Ranking Bladesman you may discover that all you can do is laugh.

Hatter and Nekko’s adventure around the ring of fire begins when they track a stolen samurai sword with a Wonderland connection to San Francisco’s styling 19th century hiphop crime madam Missy Tong and her eager protégé, the outspoken Lil’ Dick. A stowaway trip aboard a shanghai sailing ship ends on the Hawaiian Islands where a surfboard becomes Hatter’s vehicle to illumination. And then on to Japan! Good grief it’s Chikao and the gang, schoolhouse demons, cosplay, manga, noodles and a long-lost brother from another world. Duality? No. Milliners.

“So glad I took a chance and bought the whole trilogy at once… I saw the books, thumbed through the first couple pages, and knew I had to have them.”

“The Looking Glass Wars is a rollicking literary reinterpretation of the Alice in Wonderland universe sure to cast a spell on its targeting young adult audience as well as older readers. That undercurrent of danger as well as its strong characterization and thrilling plot all contribute to make this a pleasantly surprising and accomplished work.”

Blogcritics

“A Series with a dark twist on Alice in Wonderland. There are three amazing books and even 6 graphic novels! Not enough people know about this great series. I am recommending it to all of you. Frank Beddor is a genius.”

“An entertaining cross between Maguire’s WICKED and Steven Spielberg’s Peter Pan movie, Hook, THE LOOKING GLASS WARS launches a promised trilogy about Alyss’s new adventures. Beddor grabs the imagination and refuses to let go until the reader is pulled as deeply into the adventure as Alyss herself. The worst part, of course, will be the wait for the next book.”

“I have loved Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland since before I could talk… I gotta say my favorite is Frank Beddor’s The Looking Glass Wars Series.”

Backwardshearts

“Beddor challenges the delicate relationship between truth and fiction, reality and fantasy. And he does so with an interesting take on what such question can ultimately do to the mind of those that fail to believe in and trust in themselves and what they know to be true.”
