BOOK SUMMARY: Something hunts people on the outskirts of town… Sam and Lielet are two new friends living in Ethiopia. They’re dealing with the kind of problems that all kids have: judgmental social
cliques, condescending adults, alienation… and a legendary brain-eating monster straight out of folklore. Sure, it’s not going to be easy, but all they have to do is live through it. Showcasing a quietly
unsettling plot and building tension similar to NICK DRNASO’s Sabrina and ADRIAN TOMINE’s Killing and Dying, debut creative team NICHOLAS AFLLEJE and SARAH DeLAINE construct a
poignant story of otherness and mystery.

“I didn’t grow up reading comics. I didn’t discover comics really until I was eighteen, but then I fell so hard for comics… I just didn’t realize that comics could be for me. I thought it was more of a strictly
male power fantasy, and I have nothing against that, but I just didn’t think that someone like me could make comics for people like me and like other people, too… My inspirations were people like Beatrix
Potter and the big worlds that people like Moebius would make… I’m always interested in making it feel like a big, real, lived in world.”–Sarah DeLaine
