Critic Reviews

"In his new book, Kitty Feral and the Case of the Marshmallow Monkey, Noir Alley host Eddie Muller puts a frisky twist on a noir-ish tale of a detective feline sniffing out a mystery."--Parade
"The hardboiled detective spoof is nothing new to picture books, but 'Czar of Noir' Muller and Schmidt, both making children's book debuts, accomplish something more with this noir-style send-up licensed with Turner Classic Movies: nurturing an appreciation for one of cinema's greatest genres."--Publishers Weekly
