Studying mythic creatures,
learning how to heal them,
all she’s ever dreamed of!
Late to her first cryptozoology class because her guide was eaten en route, Sorceline is thrilled to be on the Isle of Voon, but the Professor’s assistant (a vampire who can endure sunlight…) calls the teens outside where a gorgon lies unconscious!
Brooding, quiet Merope knows the correct first response, so he will care for the gorgon who needs unicorn blood to survive.
When Tara goes missing during their night field trip to find a unicorn, everyone is worried; when a pile of shattered glass is found in her place, they’re worried and puzzled – what creature can do this?
Zombie pixies? Everyone knows pixies never come out at night, but one bites Sorceline who yells insults, then watches in horror as it turns into glass!
The Professor said that only one of these six students would become his apprentice – who or what is trying to eliminate some of the competition?
Sorceline’s gift is identifying magical creatures with just one look – can she help the Professor find what he needs to cure those turned into glass? Or is she the cause?
Alcide is smitten with Sorceline, utterly obsessed – is he a real teenager or a mythic creature himself?
Originally published in France as a three-part bande dessinee, Sorceline was just released in the US last month – stunning art with so many mystical creatures on the eerie island!
How do you maintain friendships while competing for the same goal?
