Compass South: A Graphic Novel (Four Points, Book 1)
by Hope Larson
Written by Hope Larson and beautifully drawn by Rebecca Mock, this story sends two sets of red-headed twins on a twisted adventurous path as they all race from Boston towards San Francisco in search of the same opportunity. The year is 1860, and the travel scenes, via both tall ship and steam ship, have an almost Tintin-ish feel. Mistaken identities, extraordinary coincidences and narrow escapes abound. The beginnings of an even larger plot involving a wondrous inheritance and a dangerous pirate gang are hinted at. Over all, very enjoyable.
