Wind is not your enemy…

On the leafy planet Luurdu, young Adalou dreams of becoming a wind mistress. Alas, she faces a thorny competition because the kite choreography brings a high prestige to women who excel in the art. Adalou must overcome her family’s opposition, her biological limits and the jealousy of high-class rivals to conquer her own place in the sun.

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!

A graphic novel set in the universe of the space-faring Gardeners, sprouting from the fertile imagination of Michèle Laframboise.
