U4: 1. Jules by Pierre-Paul Renders & Denis Lapière
Sci-Fi, YA
Book 1 of a graphic novel series about surviving after a epidemic. A virus breakout kills 90% of the planet, only teenagers, few children and few adults survive. What’s left of the adults organise safe spaces for civilians where they offer medical care and safety. The surviving teenagers form organisations to keep themselves safe, distrusting the government. Set in Paris in modern times.
Read as an eARC on NetGalley. I think this graphic novel is appropriate for teenagers and up. I really enjoyed reading this, it took me 1hr and 5mins to read. I really enjoyed the storyline and I like most of the characters.
I would recommend this book to people who enjoy films such as “28 days later” (without the zombies) and “The Maze Runner”.
