Pythons #3

The third volume of Gabriel Delmas and Joseph Lacroix's Pythons series from Editions Carabas delivers a cover that stops you cold: a lone figure, spear in hand, stands defiant before an enormous crimson serpent whose massive head fills nearly the entire frame, glowing eyes fixed and predatory. The scale alone tells you everything about the stakes — this is a small human being measured against something ancient and overwhelming. A thrilling chapter in this French fantasy series, published in 2009.
