The Book Devourer

Bjørn Ousland

Thick and exciting comic book for devourers of books! In Bjørn Ousland’s new action comic book series, books and reading are at the forefront. It all begins with a book club put together by three children. One day the books start disappearing – not just from their own shelves, but also from the school library and libraries all over the country. And it doesn’t just happen one book at a time, but all of them at the same time! The book club decides they need to make a plan. One night they see the thief – a strange flying creature who brings them to a tiny island far, far out at sea. There they’re captured by a strange little man – and suddenly the story takes a new turn. Bjørn Ousland has years of experience as a comic book illustrator, and he’s published a range of picture books and comic books, as well as educational and engaging non-fiction titles about polar heroes and feats. This book, however, is something entirely new!

The Drone Catcher

Øyvind Torseter

On a small island lives the Mule Boy. He receives a warning about a catastrophe and locks himself inside his house. The rats have taken over the city. Should he escape, or should he stay put? After consideration, he bravely ventures out into the empty streets, where he finds someone who’s part of the resistance. An adventurous, apocalyptic action-filled story about isolation, being daring and giant rats. The Drone Catcher is the fifth book about Mule Boy, a series of graphic novels that blend myth, adventure and social commentary, in text and images. Mule Boy’s skewed and somewhat alienated universe enables us to see ourselves and our society with fresh eyes.Allowing plenty of time is recommended: Between Torseter's covers there is - in every way - so much going on that his broad pages are a joy to turn.KLASSEKAMPEN[The book] is large and thick, but it is wise to give yourself plenty of time on each page, to study the details. This is where the experience lies - and the opportunity to supplement with your own associations and reflections. This applies to both adult readers and children.VÅRT LANDTorseter stands firm in its art form. The overview images are colourful, intricate and detailed, while the close-ups and individual scenes are simple and immediate, with black ink and a white background. This contrasting alternation creates a good flow in the narrative.BARNEBOKKRITIKK

The Key

Aleksander Kirkwood Brown

Two Hulders are trying to steal Tyri’s medallion, a key she has promised her father to protect at all costs. Tyri and Peter realize something is going on, and they must hide the key. At the midnight market in Oslo's Royal Park, they meet Bhurai, who reveals that the key protects the Floral, an ancient and powerful magical artifact. If the Floral's power is unleashed, it could have devastating consequences for the world. Together, Peter and Tyri descend further into the underground city, facing unknown dangers in their quest to protect the artifact. This is the second book in a critically acclaimed urban and magical graphic novel about friendship and commitment, based on fairytales, folklore and intense action. Aleksander Kirkwood Brown is skilled at creating exciting and original stories, based mostly on fairytales and Norse folklore. Kirkwood Brown is original in the sense that he combines the vernacular folklore traditions with an urban, modern story and personal challenges which contemporary readers can recognise. Luis Guaragna is a well-known and talented graphic novel illustrator with an international career. In The Undercities series he wishes to combine his own Italian-Argentinian background with the Norwegian world of fiction. Both his illustrations and characters are rich with traces of folkloric traditions – emphasising that the population of the Underground City is just as diverse as those of us who live above ground. Reviews «The second book in the Undercities series makes the reader thirst for more. ... a refreshing and different fantasy title.»Empirix «Undercities 2: The Key does exactly what the middle part of a fantasy trilogy should do; it sharpens the conflicts, expands the universe, and pumps up the tension ahead of the grand finale.»D2 «Magical realism is a literary term, but with The Undercities series one may be able to launch a new term: realistic magic. Brown and Guaragna manage to bring people and supernatural beings to life in a very convincing way.»Serienett.no

The Fall of the Patriarchy

Marta Breen / Jenny Jordahl

Through history feminists have been ridiculed and harassed all around the World. In the 18th Century well-known feminists where decapitated in the guillotines, and in the 19th Century the Suffragettes were thrown in jail. In our time feminist activists are imprisoned in countries like Iran and Saudi Arabia. Feminists are labelled as moody, angry and unattractive. Still, new generations are daring to proudly call themselves feminists. Author Marta Breen and illustrator Jenny Jordahl have through a number of books proved themselves as great communicators when it comes to the history of women. In this book they take the reader for a joyride through the cultural history of the patriarchy. With a good dose of humour the tell the stories about how men from Aristoteles to Woody Allen has described the world through the male gaze. They tell the stories of the women who through history has fought the oppression – and they rank the world’s worst sexists through times. Join us in finally taking down the patriarchy!
