The Victors

Beschreibung

A cosy fantasy YA graphic novel about what happens after the chosen one has saved the world. The prophecy foretold they would be enemies ... it didn't mention they'd be flatmates. At fifteen, Dirk Earnest led the world to victory in a savage battle against the evil overload Rárog and his demon horde. Now he's just a normal second year university student - or he's trying to be. As the heroic poster boy for fighting evil, Dirk has many adoring fans who follow his every move, but he's crushingly lonely. Cue his new housemate, Medusa de la Nuage: art student, former demon soldier, war criminal ... and Dirk's nemesis. With Dirk haunted by the ghosts of his past, and Medusa's desire for human connection battling her demonic nature, the two are about to discover that the best friend you need most might be your (ex) mortal enemy.

As the founder of the Climate Fiction Writers League, Wren works as a consultant on climate storytelling for museums, production companies, major brands and publishers, with a focus on optimism and hope. They run a Queer Writers group in Coventry and are on Instagram at @wrenjameswriter. The Victors is Wren's debut graphic novel. Beth Fuller is an artist from Dublin, Ireland. Accustomed to getting into trouble for drawing in school, she then decided to subvert that by going to art college. Now based in Copenhagen, she draws anything from concept art for for video games and animation to comics. She can usually be found somewhere between the wine and biscuit aisles of her local supermarket or taking bad black and white film photographs of her friends. The Victors is Beth's first time illustrating a graphic novel.
