STARRED REVIEW *“New graphic tales, diverse of plot and atmosphere . . . First rate.” — Kirkus Reviews
STARRED REVIEW *“Kibuishi affirms his editorial savvy for amassing talented creators . . . funny, thoughtful, and just plain good stories.” — Publishers Weekly
STARRED REVIEW *“A great sequel . . . masterfully told and beautifully drawn.” — School Library Journal Edited by the New York Times bestselling comics creator Kazu Kibuishi, The Lost Islands offers a collection of seven all-new stories written and illustrated by an award-winning roster of comics artists, with each story centered around the theme of hidden places. This graphic anthology includes well-written, beautifully illustrated stories by:
Kibuishi Kazu (the Amulet series)
Jason Caffoe (the Flight series)
Raina Telgemeier ( Drama and Smile )
Dave Roman (the Astronaut Academy series)
Jake Parker (the Missile Mouse series)
Michel Gagné ( The Saga of Rex )
Katie and Steven Shanahan (the Flight series)
And up-and-coming artist Chrystin Garland
All seven author/artists tie their scary or exhilarating nautical adventures to metaphorical underpinnings. Captain Ahab–like obsession with catching the big one leads a sailor into a cave that is really a giant mouth. One young castaway meets a crab ghost. Another meets someone she never expected to see: an older version of herself. A young island girl is lured to join tiki-masked celebrants who turn out to be dead. Beautifully drawn, each artist works in a different style, but all share humor, suspense, and a buoyant tone. Young readers will be entertained, and maybe a little scared, by this one-of-a-kind, alone-on-an-island tales of mystery and magic.
