Still on the trail of the “killer-scalper”, Wild Bill, Calamity Jane and Charlie Utter discover that the mysterious murderer, as a child, was probably himself scalped by Indians who also murdered his parents…. Meanwhile, Graham, the trio’s employer and head of the Union Pacific, welcomes the Buffalo Soldiers, black soldiers he has hired to protect the railroad yard from Indian raids. An oppressed minority to subdue despoiled Natives?

Elijah came to New York to settle old scores, and left with a family unearthed from the sands of time and memory. But neither he nor his sister, Miss Lyle, a Pinkerton agent, were able to confront the man responsible for all their misfortunes: their father, Senator Dawson. And the Dawson has taken refuge in the middle of the woods on the land of Cromley, a feared cultist. To finally have their family reunion, they’ll have to defy the devil himself!

Pellinor is a rather listless young man, but, since he stands to inherit the family fortune, his grandfather has charged him with their ancestral quest: to find and kill the Wandering Beast. Taking up the challenge, Pellinor meets Nimue, a young lady of the lake, and together they embark on adventures that will lead (unbeknown to them!) to the banishment of banality, the re-enchantment of the world, and, most importantly, the discovery of their own place in it—which far outweighs the expectations that have been placed upon them.

Did you know that less than half of women bleed the first time they have sexual intercourse? And that it is medically impossible to tell whether a woman is a virgin or not? In fact, have you ever asked yourself why women used to have to be virgins when they married?

Drawing on her own experience, journalist and novelist Élise Thiébaut gives an account of the concept of virginity that combines sociological, historical, and cultural considerations.

Sailing home from the land of Qâ, Thorgal, Aaricia and Jolan find themselves caught in the middle of the conflict between the Water People and the Forest People. Their respective deities are now unleashed, and nothing can stop the chaos of war. Except, perhaps, an arrow carved from the Tree of Life, fired at the fearsome Wendigo. To save the pregnant and wounded Aaricia, Thorgal has no choice but to take sides and once again compromise himself in the madness of mankind.

Paloma, Céleste, Sierra, Apolline… Without Chélonia’s impetus, without her desire to bring them together, it’s certain that these young girls would still be holed up in their corners, prey to their demons. The club “des Mal-Barrées”, with its rather pessimistic name, is in fact the best thing that ever happened to them: the end of Paloma’s loneliness, Céleste’s new-found confidence, Sierra’s calmed anger, Apolline’s new-found self-confidence…

But what does the seemingly self-confident Chélonia really gain from these life-saving friendships?

What if Charles Perrault had been inspired to write his famous tales by young people with incredible stories? What if the man of letters had been their teacher, before putting his stories down on paper? These are the very stories that will live on through the centuries, still read today.

In a subtle interweaving of wonder, humor and anachronisms, here is an astonishing encounter that magnifies Perrault’s work.
