Tricky Vic is a catch-me-if-you-can-esque tale of
adventure about the captivating con artist Robert Miller (a.k.a. “Count” Victor
Lustig). Pizzoli’s artwork and writing
capture the brazenness and audacity of Lustig’s escapades that both fascinate and
amaze. Side notes ground the book in its
historical period offering the reader a glimpse into Tricky Vic’s era.
Readers who enjoy nonfiction, biographies, historical
fiction, realistic fiction, or just a well-crafted story with interesting artwork
will love this book. I highly recommend it!
