Even if change terrifies her, Amy must try to brave the future with style!

Nemo (2017)

by Bruno (Author). Jules Verne's classic tale is reimagined in this graphic adaptation, which offers a subtle new interpretation of one of literature's most famous captains. In this re-telling of the classic 20,000 Leagues Under The Sea, NEMO offers an uncompromising look at life under the sea, where men are free of society and beasts roam the deep. Bruno delivers a nuanced adaptation of this literary masterpiece. 

Forbidden Harbor (NBM 2015)

By Teresa Radice, Illustrated by Stefano Turconi. In the summer of 1807, the Explorer, a ship from Her Majesty's Navy recovers a young shipwreck off the coast of Siam, Abel, who can only remember his name. He soon becomes friends with the first officer, acting as a captain because the commander of the ship has apparently absconded with the ship's treasure. Abel returns to England with the Explorer and finds accommodation at the inn run by the three fugitive captain's daughters. Well before he can recover his memory, however, he will discover something deeply disturbing about himself, and he will understand the true nature of some of the people who helped him. A haunting and intense book that digs into the soul of the protagonists as well as the reader, with a generous helping of good ol' fashioned salty adventure along with many a shanty sung and a sprinkling of magic dust. Presented in a handsome old style, with a worn-looking hardcover, as if taken from a ship captain's library. An uplifting, enthralling escape.
