Un team creativo stellare ha costruito una saga in cinque volumi pensata per giovani lettori di tutte le età. Divisi da antiche incomprensioni, cinque mondi lottano per la sopravvivenza di fronte a un’ecatombe che sembra ormai inevitabile. Tre ragazzi, diversissimi tra loro, provenienti da mondi diversi, ma uniti dal bisogno di sopravvivere e dalla volontà di lottare, troveranno la chiave per evitare la catastrofe, ma mettere in pratica ciò che va fatto per scongiurare il peggio sarà tutt’altro che facile. Una storia di amicizia che va oltre i pregiudizi, di accettazione e fede nel senso più alto del termine. Un volume stupendo disegnato da uno dei team artistici più interessante e moderno apparso negli ultimi anni sulla scena fumettistica statunitense.

La piccola Oona ha acceso il faro bianco, sconvolgendo tutto ciò che si sapeva sui cinque mondi. Insieme ai suoi nuovi amici è sulle tracce del malvagio mimic, ma soprattutto di sua sorella, che anni prima se n’è andata dal suo mondo natio per inseguire un sogno impossibile. Per salvare dalla distruzione tutto ciò che esiste, un manipolo di improbabili eroi dovrà rischiare il tutto per tutto, in questo secondo volume della bellissima serie creata da Mark e Alexis Siegel insieme a Xanthe Bouma, Matt Rockefeller e Boya Sun. Un libro sorprendente, per rivoluzionari di tutte le età.

Les changements climatiques mettent en péril l’équilibre des 5 Mondes. Aidée de Jax Amboy, le champion de starball, et d’An Tzu, le garçon des rues, Oona cherche à rallumer les cinq phares antiques qui doivent sauver l’univers. La danseuse de sable la plus connue de la galaxie réussira-t-elle sa mission malgré les multiples obstacles qui se dressent devant elle ?

The 2000 winner of the Goscinny Prize for outstanding graphic novel script, this is the harrowing tale of the Tutsi genocide in Rwanda, as seen through the eyes of a boy named Deogratias. He is an ordinary teenager, in love with a girl named B_nigne, but Deogratias is a Hutu and B_nigne is a Tutsi who dies in the genocide, and Deogratias himself plays a part in her death. As the story circles around but never depicts the terror and brutality of an entire country descending into violence, we watch Deogratias in his pursuit of B_nigne, and we see his grief and descent into madness following her death, as he comes to believe he is a dog. Told with great artistry and intelligence, this book offers a window into a dark chapter of recent human history and exposes the West''s role in the tragedy. Stassen''s interweaving of the aftermath of the genocide and the events leading up to it heightens the impact of the horror, giving powerful expression to the unspeakable, indescribable experience of ordinary Hutus caught up in the violence. Difficult, beautiful, honest, and heartbreaking, this is a major work by a masterful artist.
