Tongues, Vol. 1
by Anders Nilsen
A visually stunning, mythic narrative that’s quite unlike anything else you’ll read this year or maybe ever.
Saying it’s a retelling of the Prometheus myth is too trite to do justice to this fascinating story. While it does draw inspiration from the ancient Greek tale, Tongues is completely one of a kind and tells a story that is at once recognizable and unfamiliar. Seamlessly connected narratives coalesce in a story that you can’t help but want more of. Also Astrid is perhaps one of the best and most likable protagonists, especially child protagonists, I've read in a long time.
Eagerly awaiting the continuation of this story!
