By Pierre-Henry Gomont
Publisher: Dargaud Benelux
Genres:
Action & Adventure, Drama
The 1990s, in the heart of Russia.
No one heard from Lavrine since his heated confrontation with Slava.
If he can’t be found, it’s because he’s been abandoned by Troubetskoï in a remote outpost, two fingers amputated and penniless.
Mired in his solitude, Lavrine is a shadow of his former self. If he manages to bamboozle the good souls who offer him help, his heart is no longer in it. He’s lost the appetite for gain and swindling that always served as his reason for living… Will he find the breath he needs to finally reveal himself?
As for Slava, he’s more focused on his clandestine passion for Nina than on concluding the deals he’s initiated with Troubetskoï to save the mine. He has to redouble his ingenuity to prevent Arkady, his impetuous lover’s fiancé, from discovering their romance…
The second volume in Pierre-Henry Gomont’s tragicomic trilogy, in which the author depicts, with his characteristic verve and talent, the troubled destiny of this Slavic duo, colorful and endearing.

Once, people had roads, cars, tanks, electric scooters, espresso machines, fridges, and toasters. Then, one Thursday (or was it Friday?) a century or two ago, the Great Mist swept them all away, wiped them out, swallowed them up and spewed out monsters that devoured everyone that might have survived, except Temperance — a tiny troll who was rescued by the witch known as Grisette the Reaper and taken to her village in the mountains. There, the girl lives peaceably among all the old witches, who consider themselves protected by Grisette’s magical powers. Until one day, when the terrible Mist finally descends on the village and carries off the weakest of witches.
Forced by the resulting animosity, Temperance is determined to solve the mystery of the Great Mist. Accompanied by the caustic Asma, the bizarre Helen, the mischievous Ezilda, and her crotchety old grandma Grisette, young Temperance leaves the forest in search of human beings… if there are any left.

Fantasy & Esoteric, Historical fiction
The fortress of Tell Bashir has fallen to the Franks, but the Qādì will not give up. He takes advantage of the confusion created by the crusaders’ assault to flee with his trusted men to the Cave of Blood; it is there that he intends to invoke – as his fathers had already done years earlier – a djinn, a creature of immeasurable powers capable of turning the tide of war. Nero is well aware of the horrors this ritual could unleash, as he still bears the scars; it’s precisely for this reason that he decides to prevent the Qādì from achieving his ends.
This second volume of Nero reunites us with the fierce Arab warrior imagined by the Mammucari brothers, this time accompanied by talented co-designer Matteo Cremona.
