Ella and Madeleine don’t know it yet, but they’re about to embark on the strangest romantic adventure of their lives, and it’s not just their hearts that are getting stolen in this laugh-out-loud, capering graphic novel. What happened last night? Ella can’t seem to remember a single thing from the party the night before at a mysterious stranger’s mansion, and she sure as heck doesn’t know why she’s woken up in her bed surrounded by a magpie’s nest of objects that aren’t her own. And she can’t stop thinking about her huge crush on Madeleine, who she definitely can’t tell about her sudden penchant for kleptomania… But does Maddy have secrets of her own? Can they piece together that night between them and fix the mess of their chaotic personal lives in time to form a normal, teenage relationship? That would be nice. Lucie Bryon is a cartoonist and illustrator. She studied graphic design in Orléans, France and comics at the ESA St Luc Brussels, Belgium. She now lives in France a works for children’s publishing, video game companies and various publications as an illustrator and comic artist. Her work was published by ShortBox, Milan, BDkids, Kaboom Studios, Cicada Magazine, and France Inter. 4

FICTION AN ILLUSTRATED HISTORY OF GHOSTS 51999 9 781913 123079
A bump in the night, the crack of floorboards and the uneasy coldness of a room... Signs we might attribute to a ghostly presence.

SEPTEMBER

Through the decades, investigators and mediums have dedicated themselves to the task of reaching through the veil and contacting the other side. This illustrative study explores whether ghosts are the souls of the dead, windows in time or interdimensional beings, and how cultures through the ages have responded with fear and fascination to their horrific haunts and eerie appearances. Adam Allsuch Boardman grew up in an exceptionally green part of the Yorkshire Dales in England, and studied BA Illustration at Leeds Arts University. He is currently a freelance illustrator, doing jobs for national museum exhibits, educational publications and historic businesses. He is greatly influenced by film and television as well as books, from authors such as Agatha Christie to Isaac Asimov. 7

A colorful coming-of-age story that explores adolescence, failure...and the Beatles. This is the story of a girl growing up in the 1990s – a middle-schooler who finds herself lost in the gulf between childhood and adolescence, developing paralyzing fears of failure, school, other people, and her own changing body. Along the way, she becomes obsessed with the Beatles… which might be just what she needs to find her way back to being okay. Yeah yeah yeah! Magali Le Huche was born in Paris in 1979. She spent five years at the school of decorative arts in Strasbourg, three of which she specialized in illustration. She left the school in 2004 and came back to Paris with her first two children's books tucked under her arm. Ever since then, she's been working regularly as an author and illustrator for the press and children's publishing. 8

Valentine Carter
OUT NOW!
Faithful Penelope waits for her husband’s return as she weaves a shroud that foretells her doom, Scylla once a beautiful nymph turned monster prowls the seas hungry for flesh, while the witch Circe falls for a man who will leave her. Valentine Carter’s fierce verse novel debut gives voice to the mostly forgotten and maligned female characters of Homer’s epic The Odyssey. It is a celebratory ode to those who survive within and outside of gender norms and questions how those without a voice find freedom within the world of men. Valentine Carter grew up in a small village, escaped to the capital and now lives by the sea. They recently completed an MA in creative writing at Birkbeck, University of London, where they are now studying for a PhD. Valentine has short fiction published by The Fiction Pool, Bandit Fiction, In Yer Ear and The Mechanics’ Institute Review: Issue 15 and Issue 16, and poetry published by Perverse and Visual Verse.
