Who This Author Is
Kevin O'Malley has enough depth here to be more than a raw catalog rollup. This page pulls together 13 catalog-linked books across 1993 to 2018, which makes it easier to separate the strongest starting points from the noisier editions. The clearest lane here leans toward Fantasy & Sci-Fi.
Best for readers who want imaginative settings, series momentum, and clearer jumping-in spots. If you want the easiest first click, start with Grandfather Duck and branch outward from there. UPB note: the strongest documented run here lands between 1993 to 2018; the most common copies on this page tend to come from Harpercollins Childrens Books and Walker & Co.
