Happy birthday. Let’s go to hell.
 
When nineteen-year-old Eliza enrolls in a UCLA history class—taught by handsome, enigmatic professor Oliver Crowley—she vows to solve the mystery that is her professor, which leads to a terrifying quest full of demons, homunculi, zombie gang bangers, and an obnoxious stepmother. But, can she confront the most frightening creature of all—herself?
 
Eliza and The Alchemist takes readers on a macabre journey from the golden age of film to gang-ridden East Los Angeles, and to the very gates of hell.
 
“Carlos Lacámara has developed an utterly charming premise for a fantasy adventure that evokes the classic romance and nostalgia adventure era, whilst offering slick modern narrative skills to tell the tale.”
-- K.C. Finn for Readers' Favorite
 
“... a mystical, madcap trek through worlds presumably real and realistically etheric. The result is an engaging saga worthy of cinematic treatment.”
-- Blue Ink
 
“A delightfully bizarre and rollicking supernatural comedy with colorful humans and ghastly monsters.”
-- Kirkus Reviews
