In this YA graphic novel, gladiators of the modern-day Roman Empire are enslaved teenagers who race monster trucks on reality TV. In a near-future world where the Roman Empire never fell, only two things matter: honor and The Game. 'The Game' is Truckus Maximus, a competition where drivers race against one another to the death. The best of the best is a young driver named Axl. The leader of Team Apollo, Axl drives hard and lives by a strict code of honor. That honor will be pushed to its limits by the Caesar, the cunning ruler of the Roman Empire, and the Dominus, the absolute master of the Truckus Maximus games who can change its rules at will. But Axl can't survive this race on his own. To do that, he'll have to embrace his team, including a defiant new racer named Piston. Will he learn that family is more important than honor and The Game? Or will he go down in flames? (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

In the second volume of the fantasy epic Cottons, rabbits and foxes wage war in a world of magic, monsters, and mystery! Bridgebelle tries her best to be a good citizen of the Vale of Industry. She has a top position at the carrot factory, where she helps produce the mysterious fuel known as cha. It's a good life for a rabbit - an ordinary life. But Bridgebelle is not ordinary - she's an artist. She uses her rare gift to create magical, cha-powered works of art known as thokchas. Many rabbits are suspicious of thokchas, and they blame them-and Bridgebelle-for the mysterious plague that's stricken their community. The foxes, however, see the power that thokchas hold. They're planning to use art and dark magic to destroy the rabbits once and for all. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

: In the newest of the New York Times-bestselling Olympians series, author/artist George O'Connor focuses on Hermes, the trickster god. In volume ten of Olympians, George O'Connor delves into the myth of Hermes, the trickster god. From his infancy, when he bewitches animals and bends them to his will (stealing a herd of Apollo's prize cattle in the bargain), to his adolescence and adulthood when he becomes father to the equally mischievous Pan, Hermes's story is wildly entertaining as he brings a little bit of chaos to everything he touches or creates. This volume is sure to be a fan favorite with its wit, charm, and storytelling. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

A teenager is pulled back in time to witness her grandmother's experiences in WWII-era Japanese internment camps. Kiku is on vacation in San Francisco when suddenly she finds herself displaced to the 1940s Japanese-American internment camp that her late grandmother, Ernestina, was forcibly relocated to during World War II. These displacements keep occurring until Kiku finds herself 'stuck' back in time. Living alongside her young grandmother and other Japanese-American citizens in internment camps, Kiku gets the education she never received in history class. She witnesses the lives of Japanese-Americans who were denied their civil liberties and suffered greatly, but managed to cultivate community and commit acts of resistance in order to survive. Kiku Hughes weaves a riveting, bittersweet tale that highlights the intergenerational impact and power of memory. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels
