What if man journeyed into space in 1869, not 1969? In The Moon-King, the second volume in this breath-taking fantasy graphic novel series, Alex Alice draws on Jules Verne and nineteenth-century romanticism to create a watercolour world of adventure and wonder to enchant adults and younger readers alike. In anticipation of their maiden voyage, Seraphin and the Knights of Aether had prepared for everything―except treason. The villainous chamberlain wants to overthrow King Ludwig and claim the electro-aetheric technology for Prussia. The only escape for the king and his companions lies in the frosty skies above Bavaria. The aethership’s first flight is a success, but their respite is short-lived. As long as the chamberlain is free to spread his lies, these travellers will find no safe harbour. To save the king’s throne, they must push the ship even farther―out of the sky . . . and into the stars!
Alex Alice is a French graphic novel writer and artist, working in France and sometimes the U.S. Born in 1974, he grew up in the south of France and had the chance to travel around Europe, where he developed a life-long passion for the ruins and castles of the medieval and romantic ages. In Castle in the Stars, he draws on Jules Verne and nineteenth century romanticism to create a watercolour world of adventure and wonder, to enchant adults and younger readers alike. His works have been translated in more than 15 languages.
