My Weekly Pull is something I do every Wednesday to show which comics I had pulled for me that week! If you're into comics, or you're looking to start, please join me! If you decide to do your own post, there's a link-up at the bottom. I would love to stop by and check it out!
Dungeons & Dragons: Infernal Tides #3 by Jim Zub, Max Dunbar
Jim Henson's The Storyteller: Ghosts #2 by Jennifer Rostowsky, Tamra Bonvillain
THEY'RE RELEASING COMICS AGAIN!
Can't Wait Wednesday is a weekly feature that's hosted by Tressa at Wishful Endings. It highlights the upcoming releases we're really excited about reading! CWW is a spinoff of the feature Waiting on Wednesday (WoW), that was started by Jill at Breaking the Spine.
Spindlefish and Stars by Christine M. Andrews
Expected publication: September 22nd 2020 by Little, Brown
Synopsis (via Goodreads): In which a story is spun.
And unspun.
Clothilde has lived her whole life in the shadows with her (sometimes) thieving and (always) ailing father. But when he fails to meet her one morning, sending her instead a mysterious ticket of half-paffage, Clo finds herself journeying across the sea to reunite with him. The ticket, however, leaves her on a sunless island inhabited only by creaking fishermen, a rumpled old woman, a piggish cat, and a moon-cheeked boy named Cary.
Clo is quickly locked away and made to spend her days in unnerving chores with the island's extraordinary fish, while the old woman sits nearby weaving an endless gray tapestry. Frustrated and aching with the loss of her father, Clo must unravel the mysteries of the island and all that's hidden in the vast tapestry's threads -- secrets both exquisite and terrible. And she must decide how much of herself to give up in order to save those she thought she'd lost forever.
Inspired by Greek mythology, this spellbinding fantasy invites readers to seek connections, to forge their own paths, and to explore the power of storytelling in our interwoven histories.

Hope you enjoy the comics! :) The Dungeons and Dragons looks really cool!
ReplyDeleteI've really enjoyed the previous issues of D&D! I haven't played the game, but I've always wanted to. :)
DeleteSpindlefish and Stars sounds fun. It looks like a middle grade book which is how I like my Greek mythology.
ReplyDeleteI don't think I've read a YA that's centered around Greek Mythology! If I have, I don't remember what it was. Percy Jackson and the Olympians comes to mind. ;) I hope Spindlefish and Stars is as lovely as its cover!
DeleteHow fun. I haven't read these.
ReplyDeleteI've never played D&D, but I've always wanted to! :)
DeleteBooks based on Greek myth? I'm in!
ReplyDeleteHard same! I LOVED the Percy Jackson series, but haven't found another one like it. :)
DeleteThat Spindlefish cover is gorgeous! My dad used to read me Greek mythology as bedtime stories-I always enjoyed that and him doing the voices when he read Lord of the Rings!
ReplyDeleteRight? I love it! Your dad sounds awesome! I don't remember my parents telling me bedtime stories (they're not big readers), but I've always been fascinated by Greek mythology (most mythologies really). I'm smiling thinking about a parent reading LOTR to their kid while using voices! You're lucky. :)
DeleteI really like the sound of Spindlefish and Stars! I'm also curious about Jim Henson's The Storyteller: Ghosts #2. I'll have to look into the first one. I hope you enjoy these when you read them. Have a great week.
ReplyDeleteI'm enjoying The Storyteller series! There's an old man that tells the tales to his dog, which adds a humorous twist to dark stories.
DeleteI wonder if my son knows there are Dungeons and Dragons comics? He still plays D&D with old high school friends twice a week. They've been playing via Discord t hese last few weeks. Ha ha. 😁
ReplyDeleteI love that your son is still playing D&D virtually during the pandemic, haha. I've always wanted to play! Our LCS here has a group that gets together, and I was thinking about going until the pandemic. The comic is great, if you want to recommend it to him. :)
