Runeless - Hardcover
by Bill Masuku (Author), Daniel Quartey (Illustrator), Mario Vitor Gouveia Cau (Inker)
In a world in which magical runes determine a person's fate, runeless best friends find themselves on opposite sides of an epic fight for justice.
This exciting fantasy graphic novel about friendship and power is perfect for 8-12-year-old fans of Amulet and Avatar: The Last Airbender. In the wealthy city of Dura, a person's fate is determined by which of seven magical runes they're born with. And Fungai and Ngoni, both born without runes, have nothing--except each other. But when a mysterious, hooded figure known as the Vagabond offers to magically grant them runes, the boys see their chance for a normal life . . . though it comes at a terrible cost. For the first time ever, Fungai and Ngoni disagree--and their choices change everything, pitting them against each other in a bitter fight for justice. Full of action and emotion, Runeless is the epic story of friends torn apart--and, against all odds, reunited--in an adventure that transforms their world.Author Biography
