L'ombre de l'aigle #[nn]

A Napoleonic soldier in a heavy fur-collared coat charges through a snow-blasted winter landscape, rifle in hand, while two more figures scramble through the drifts behind him — the scene captures cold, desperate momentum beautifully. L'ombre de l'aigle ("The Shadow of the Eagle") brings Arturo Pérez-Reverte and Rubén del Rincón's collaboration to the page in this 2017 Editions du Long Bec release. If you're drawn to historical adventure rendered in a crisp, expressive line style, this snow-covered cover alone makes a compelling case for picking it up.
