"Queen of the Sea stands out as one of the most accomplished, even
beautiful, comics of the year." --School Library Journal
When her sister seizes the throne, Queen Eleanor of Albion is banished
to a tiny island off the coast of her kingdom, where the nuns of the
convent spend their days peacefully praying, sewing, and gardening. But
the island is also home to Margaret, a mysterious young orphan girl
whose life is upturned when the cold, regal stranger arrives. As
Margaret grows closer to Eleanor, she grapples with the revelation of
the island's sinister true purpose as well as the truth of her own past.
When Eleanor's life is threatened, Margaret is faced with a perilous
choice between helping Eleanor and protecting herself and her Island
family. In a graphic novel of fictionalized history, Dylan Meconis
paints Margaret's world in soft greens, grays, and reds, transporting
readers to a quiet, windswept island at the heart of a treasonous royal
plot.
