Enchainés Dans l entrepont de La Marie-Séraphique

Against a backdrop of growing instability in 26th-century Paris, Elle, a young woman with a strong sense of justice, and Karel, her android boyfriend, fight to stay together. If they’re going to have a future, they firstly need to resolve Karel’s planned obsolescence—his life expectancy has been mysteriously plummeting ever since he met Elle. They decide to flee the capital and head for Madrid, where they hope to find the scientist who can purportedly fix Karel’s rapidly dwindling battery life. But it promises to be a bumpy ride, with the police and a malicious spare parts dealer hot on their trail, not to mention the enemies they make along the way. A thrilling second entry in the series, marked by class struggle, social justice, and love against all odds.

Deep in the heart of an enchanted forest, a small village of children lives unaffected by the passage of time thanks to a powerful stone that protects them from it. But when the stone is shattered and a thief runs off with one of the shards, four of the children must set out at once in search of the missing shard before their village is swallowed up by time and everybody in it dies. Armed with four crystals with special powers, the children bravely make their way through the dangerous forest to hunt down the thief, making friends and enemies along the way and encountering one strange creature after another.
