Description

A fantastical and haunting coming-of-age graphic novel from debut creator, Marlyn Spaaij, that offers adventure, magic, and mystery on every page. Frygea Forest is an ancient and mysterious place where trolls lurk and changelings cause mischief. Every year, Kyra and her sisters Margot and Janna spend the summer at their grandma’s farm in Frygea Forest, engaging in activities like roasting marshmallows and befriending root goblins. However, this summer is different as Margot begins to drift apart, keeping secrets and causing Kyra to worry. When Margot is lured into the woods by mysterious figures, Kyra is determined to save her, even if it means facing the eerie forces of the forest with only her younger sister, Janna, to help. This graphic novel beautifully captures the essence of growing up and the importance of maintaining one's imagination through the adventures of Kyra and her sisters in the magical Frygea Forest.
