Mistress of the Winds (2022)

Cover of graphic novel

Discover a civilization of space-faring Gardeners with no equals in the science fiction world!

With Mistress of the Winds, multi-award winning author Michèle Laframboise has created a richly-developed world populated with vivid and endearing characters. Follow young Adalou as she struggles against powerful foes and her own body’s limits in the most prestigious kite contest of the planet!

This YA graphic novel kidnaps you into an alien civilization so out of this world that you will want to know more about it… and zoom through the pages before giving it to your daughter!

Fans of Babylon 5, Star Trek and Bride Stories will eat up this delicious coming-of-age story sprouting from Michèle’s fertile imagination.
