'My tale starts with a 'once upon a time.'' A long time ago, beings lived who could control the elements, immortality, and time. We called them gods and gave them our worship. They played with us like toys, took our lives and sabotaged our love. Now, the gods are myths. Stories in books-not to be confused with our modern world. I believed this until I found myself tumbling through a dream. This dream took me to another life. To a forgotten time in a bloody age. I dreamt of Hades's son and a lustful goddess. I dreamt of limitless power and revolving time. I dreamt a death and love that was mine? My name is Cara Wynter, and this is my story.' Cara Wynter is a literature student living with her twin sister, Lily, in Fairhaven, Washington. A daughter of witches, touch brings Cara only pain, and dark visions of pasts and futures she can rarely change. Already fighting to exist in her strange reality, she begins to crumble when the reoccurring dreams of her own death begin. In a desperate attempt to unlock the secrets in the violent images, she finds herself lost in a contest between love and the will of the ancient gods. With only forgotten memories and the pages of a book to guide her, she struggles to understand her past and break a deadly curse. Cara must face her worst fears, to save the soul of a god she has treasured for centuries, and a love she cannot live without. JP Roth's Ancient Dreams graphic novel includes 9 chapters of full color stories, including 3 never collected before, in a complete 160-page collection. Ancient Dreams is written by author, dreamer and wild child extraordinaire JP Roth. Roth is an American Novelist, and owner of Rothic Comics, founded in 2012, through which she has produced and published five of her original series.

ABLAZE ARTIST SPOTLIGHT MANIX ABRERAS BANDED SET

ABLAZE is proud to present two outstanding graphic novels by acclaimed Filipino cartoonist and three-time National Book Awardee Manix Abrera. With his 'silent' storytelling, dependent on illustration to direct story and movement, Abrera truly demonstrates the heart and soul of the comics medium. This bundled set comes to you at a special price. In '12,' Abrera tells twelve genuinely touching stories, each story with its own charm and intriguing twists - a young man spends his entire life searching for answers but shock awaits when he finally gets that eureka moment; someone finds love that unexpectedly finds somebody else; two men argue over who goes first on an escalator; a mother and daughter fight over a cockroach; a drunk man urinates on a tree and gets a big surprise - making you wonder how these mundane plots can turn out so bizarrely, prompting you to reflect and crave for more! In '14,' a man who mysteriously discovers a 13th floor in his building and finds himself in the middle of a storytelling session among different mythological creatures of Philippine folklore. Together with a partying crowd of supernatural beings, he listens to stories narrated by creatures such as the Manananggal, Diwata, Tikbalang, Kapre, Tiyanak, and even by a White Lady and a Doppelganger.

ABLAZE SPOTLIGHT FABLES COLL SET

ABLAZE is shining the spotlight on the wide variety of genres and fantastic works within our catalogue! Our Spotlight on Fables includes three comic titles - Wild Thing, Animal Castle Vol. 1, A Man's Skin - bundled together under a specially discounted price. In Wild Thing: One night, Silver meets a trio of hungry wolves. Attracted by their unhindered life-as enticing as it is dangerous-he decides to follow them, and learns to live the wild life with the pack, which is rough and exhilarating at the same time. Along the way he discovers love, and the ravages of human civilization that are reducing the living space of animals, threatening their very existence. In Animal Castle: Nestled in the heart of a farm forgotten by men, the Animal Castle is ruled with an iron hoof by President Silvio. The bull and its dog militia savor their power, while the other animals are exhausted by work, until the arrival of the mysterious Azelar, a traveling rat who will teach them the secrets of civil disobedience. In A Man's Skin: Bianca, a young woman in Renaissance Italy, is engaged via her parents' wishes to Giovanni, a young man from a prosperous merchant family. While he is young and seems pleasant, Bianca can't hide her disappointment in having to marry a man she knows nothing about. However, before the wedding she is bequeathed a family heirloom: A Man's Skin. Donning the skin, Bianca becomes 'Lorenzo,' afforded all the benefits of being a young man in the world, including the opportunity to get to know Giovanni.
