Imagine Garth Hale's surprise when he's accidentally zapped to the spirit world by Frank Gallows, a washed-out ghost wrangler. Suddenly Garth finds he has powers the ghosts don't have, and he's stuck in a world run by the evil ruler of Ghostopolis, who would use Garth's newfound abilities to rule the ghostly kingdom. When Garth meets Cecil, his grandfather's ghost, the two search for a way to get Garth back home, and nearly lose hope until Frank Gallows shows up to fix his mistake. Review: Beautiful Story, Energetic Artwork - I must admit I walked into this story cautiously, as it didn't grip me from the beginning. Once I got deeper into it though, I wondered why I ever doubted. This is a great story with characters you can relate to, characters that'll make you laugh, and some that you can't quite wrap your head around. There's a strong Christ figure in the story, as there is with much of TenNapel's art, but I felt this one was a little forced. The message is still great though, and Doug TenNapel always manages to give a salvation message without sounding too preachy or turning people off from the story. I am a Christian but do not appreciate when books try to shove messages down my throat, and TenNapel does not do that. His books are a real gem because of it - I've never found any like them. Story-wise it's fun, there are a lot of interesting characters, and it has a message that'll grip you at the heart. As far as artwork goes, it's pretty lush. A minimum of strokes is always used for the maximum effect, as with all of TenNapel's work. But this one is different because it's in color. The colors are strong and bold without being ugly - very artistic. I love it. In short, this book is good and worth a read. Hey - it didn't get slated for production as a movie for no reason! Review: The Rich World of Ghostopolis - TenNapel's Ghostopolis is truly a work that is so deeply tied to its author that one might find it difficult to separate one from the other. But it is because of this connection that makes the work live a life apart from its author. Like C.S. Lewis' Chronicles of Narnia or J.R.R. Tolken's Lord of The Rings, TenNapel has nurtured this creation enough to face the world on its own. Ghostopolis' world is rich and very alive, despite the fact it takes place in the World of the Dead. So much is there without blatant explanation, building a sense of mystery. This entices the reader to explore and enrich his knowledge of history and culture so that he/she might discover more of what lies within the pages. Ghostopolis is a book that will spark new excitement beyond the first read-through. As a reader goes through life and grows in knowledge and experience they can return to this book to discover a whole new experience. Aside from the world, the journey of Ghostoplis is equally enriching and contains layers that can be unfolded based on a reader's experience in life. This is a story about growth, maturity, and responsibility. Instead of focusing these themes on just youth, TenNapel demonstrates how people of all ages need these lessons and experiences. This opens the door so that readers of all ages have something to relate to in the story. This is TenNapel's finest work to date, not just as storyteller but as an artist. Visually, Ghostopolis is just as rich as the story. TenNapel has put out his best in Ghostopolis, ensuring that this a book will live a life beyond himself. ## Features - Used Book in Good Condition ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #1,003,602 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #646 in Teen & Young Adult Paranormal & Urban Fantasy #887 in Teen & Young Adult Fantasy Action & Adventure #2,168 in Teen & Young Adult Comics & Graphic Novels (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 599 Reviews | ## Images ![Ghostopolis - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71-12jqkGrL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Beautiful Story, Energetic Artwork *by E***Y on April 9, 2011* I must admit I walked into this story cautiously, as it didn't grip me from the beginning.

I think with just a couple of exceptions they have all been optioned as films. Doug tells a compelling and imaginative story with well dimensioned characters. And they are usually about something fundamental to the human experience. But they also manage to have things like a giant lightning bug serving as a nuclear reactor power source for the seven kingdoms of the afterlife. Doug goes way out there but brings it all home with the personal character touches. The bad guy has a very good reason to be bad, but it's no excuse for bad behavior. Bad behavior like using most of the skyscrapers of Ghostopolis to morph into a giant skyscraper robot. With the asymmetry of different buildings giving him varied body, arms, legs and head. The pleasing, appealing art and imagination are reason enough to buy the book. There's a love triangle. A lost boy that has to find a reason to survive a mortal illness. A self sacrificing Skeleton Lord that aids God in the afterlife to usher the helpless past the Evil Vaugner. It's a hefty 200 pages plus of the fantastic. Can't wait for the movie. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.br/products/13530060-ghostopolis](https://www.desertcart.com.br/products/13530060-ghostopolis) --- *Product available on Desertcart Brazil* *Store origin: BR* *Last updated: 2026-05-18*
