Summary

Aeden is young man with no memory, adrift in a world of riddles. His only friend - a man hated for his race and creed, their only hope - a nun on the run for opposing the Holy Wars. Meanwhile a veteran of the Third Crusade is hunting Aeden, believing him to be the clue to discovering the greatest secret in alchemy, the identity of the First Matter. Originally penned in the wake of 9/11, Riddler's Fayre is a series that has as much to say about our world today as it does the twelfth and thirteenth centuries.
Available since: 12/15/2016.

    "Why are you here to insult me again!" Moaned Dr. Alexander. 
    "No Astra, Queen of Vampires had a vision on a crime scene!" said Lance. 
    "What's new my granddaughter is a medium!" Dr. Alexander moaned. 
    "But what she saw wasn't real!" said Lance 
    "Then why tell us, if it is not real!" said Dante who was trying to clean the blood off the pages of the bloody papers. 
    "What did she see?" asked Dr. Alexander. 
    "A white raven sitting on a human skull blood running from the nose hole of the skull in a dark place," said Lance turning white. 
    "It means you Dad your symbol is a white raven, the skull symbol of death." 
    "What is that meant to mean?" said Dante. 
    "Blue Midnight is going to die or I am King of the grim reapers!" snapped Blake shortly. 
    "What about the bloody nose?" asked Dante. 
    "Blood of death!" said Lance. 
    "What does that mean!" said Dante. 
    "There will be blood!" said Blake. 
    "Don't be a drama queen!" scoffed Lance. 
    "It's just an omen they happen someone is trying to reveal me, the Emperor of the solar system as a grim reaper!" Blake moaned, "and my blood relatives! Wouldn't put it past this guy on the slab! He has the motivation and he didn't know Astra was one of my kin who knew who I was! Come with me you two!" a portal of darkness swirled in the air.

    What is feminism? Why are we still talking about it, and what can it tell us about ourselves, our societies and prejudices? 
     
    
    In this unique, illustrated introduction, we'll explore the early history of conscious struggle against sexist oppression, through the modern "waves" of feminism, up to present-day conversations about MeToo, intersectional feminism, and women's rights in the Middle East. We'll look at critical theory, popular action and the social and cultural forces that affect attitudes toward gender, women's lives and the struggle for equality. And we'll hear about the contributions of pioneers like Mary Wollstonecraft, Simone de Beauvoir and Kimberlé Crenshaw. As we'll see, feminism is at once global, local and individual. 
    
    Written by Cathia Jenainati with illustrations from Judy Groves and Jem Milton, Feminism: A Graphic Guide engages with the heated debates taking place in our homes, workplaces and public spaces -- and the work still to be done.
