"A young girl sits waiting at the top of the stairs,

glowing in the darkness.

Leading you quickly to the far side

of the banister, she hops up into a

painting of a small winding staircase,

shrinking beautifully as if she and

Alice were old friends.

You shrug your shoulders: there is

nothing to be done but to follow."

Dare to enter the dark, magical mansion of the Warlock on the Hill -- full of dangerous riddles, echoing voices, and terrifying creatures -- and you may never be the same again. The Errand: The Warlock on the Hill is the second volume in The Errand graphic novel series. In each book of this series, Leo La Fleur and Adam Oehlers use poetic language and hauntingly beautiful illustrations to spin a darkly fantastical tale in which the reader follows a simple errand boy on a courage-testing adventure of great magic and ever deepening peril.
