O Pacto da Letargia #[nn]

Prado's cover sets an immediate tone of ancient mystery: a towering, horned supernatural figure looms over a misty forest landscape, its unsettling gaze fixed outward while two small human figures stand near a megalithic dolmen below, dwarfed by the entity's overwhelming presence. Published in 2020 by Ala dos Livros, O Pacto da Letargia brings together Miguelanxo Prado's striking painted linework with a story co-written by Ricardo Magalhães Pereira and Paula Caetano. The contrast between the vast, otherworldly being and the vulnerable figures at the stone monument promises a tale steeped in folklore and the uncanny.
