Review: "4.5 ALIEN SKULLS OUT OF 5. [E.H.] delivers on all levels for its audience....Fantastic design, from its moving lenticular cover of a vampire skull and spider through the stylish layout of the inside pages to the final credits." -- Apex Science Fiction and Horror Digest

"Aimed at kids and teens, [E.H.] is also nice reading for the not-so-adult grown-ups. . . . Tons of references and links for each one of us to further investigate the unknown." -- Razor Reel

"GRADE: A. In depth without being graphic, informative about the frightening without being too frightening in the informing . . . A must have for your reference shelf." -- The-Trades.com

"The very look of the book is hugely appealing to kids....Sometimes, it seems, you can judge a book by its cover. At least enough to know that you want to read it." -- School Library Journal
