Laced with local color, this debut will please fans of the macabre." - Library Journal "Harun creates a masterfully bleak and spooky mood, and succinctly captures the desperation of the young people's lives …[a] promising debut ."

The King of Limbo is a wonderful work of the imagination." -Jean Thompson, "An ingenious tale of myth, magic and murder….told in rich prose….[An] auspicious debut." -- Seattle Times "Hypnotic...tantalizing...lush and evocative...Literary and genre lovers alike can find a striking new voice to celebrate in A Man Came Out of A Door in the Mountain ." -- Kansas City Star " A Man Came Out of a Door in the Mountain is literary magic of the highest order ….
