Supernatural powers and the will to break a centuries-old curse collide when a man searches for the book containing the spell that will free him. The family of Dan Briggs has been cursed for three centuries and must find the remedy, written in The Book of Curses. Dan confronts the ghost witch who originated the curse and he and his sister, Sarah, are banished to a private purgatory existing between the living and dead. They encounter ancestors-a Puritan, his daughter, and a Revolutionary War soldier-as Dan's girlfriend, Lettice, searches for the book. Advance fifty years: The book has not been found and Lettice's granddaughter, Kalendra, befriends a college classmate who coincidentally lives in Dan's house. Dan contacts them, but his appearance calls forth the ghost witch and a warlock. The roommates enlist the aid of Ian and they locate the book in the library of Ian's uncle, the warlock. Dan, Sarah, and the ancestors are freed from the spell, but are now being pursued by a warlock. It's Dan's job to stop him, if he can find out how.

Delving into mythology, belief, and spirituality,Kevin Huizenga's short stories are based on the lives of familiar characters confronting the textures of mortality in unique and sometimes peculiar ways. Huizenga fuses the most banal aspects of modern culture with its most looming questions in a consistently genial style. Lighthearted, but with a healthy dose of nineteenth-century spine tingling, the narratives presented in Curses are insightful portrayals of reality. Huizenga's central character in his comics is Glenn Ganges, a seemingly middle-class man living in the suburbs whose blank-eyed wonderment at everyday experiences brings together such diverse aspects of our world as golf, theology, late-night diners, parenthood, politics, Sudanese refugees, and hallucinatory vision, into a complete experience as multifaceted as our own lives. Huizenga is regarded by many as one of the most promising young cartoonists of his generation, whose artistic talent, singular writing, and studied substance prove the versatility of his skill. Curses collects his work from Kramer's Ergot and The Drawn & Quarterly Showcase, his award-winning and nominated comic-book series Or Else, and Time magazine; it is the most extensive selection of his comics to date in a single volume.
