Rebel in the Library of Ever may never have become known to the world had Paige Wheeler and her team of daredevils at Creative Media Agency not rappelled into the cavern where the manuscript had been hidden and brought it forth into the light. They smuggled it to John Morgan at Imprint, whose editorial wisdom shaped it into the book you are holding today. Matt Rockefeller knocked everyone out with his visionary cover, giving us a portrait of Lenora for which Zeno will be forever grateful. Erin Stein’s editorial insights were also invaluable. Morgan Rath, Dawn Ryan, Regina Castillo, Jie Yang, and Carolyn Bull performed heroic work as well. And Zeno would have no books at all without his first reader, Miriam Angress, now and forever. The assistance of the brilliant authors of Adverb Fight Club (John Claude Bemis, Jennifer Harrod, and JJ Johnson) is grand without measure. And of course, the utmost gratitude to Lenora, who allowed Zeno to tell her story.
