Lothaire Flammes #3

The third volume of Marianne Alexandre's Lothaire Flammes series whisks readers away to L'île d'Ophrys, and the cover sets a wonderfully atmospheric tone: two young companions — one auburn-haired, one dark-haired — stand at the prow of a vessel, a small fox-like creature at their side, while a magnificent glowing white owl spreads its great wings above them against a soft, luminous sky. Published in 2021 by Éditions Jungle, this entry in Alexandre's fantasy series carries all the hallmarks of an adventure that balances warmth and wonder in equal measure. If you're drawn to stories of young heroes, mythical creatures, and faraway islands, this volume looks like a thoroughly enchanting ride.
