Fantastic Tales of Nothing

In the first book of this full-color fantasy
graphic novel series filled with humor and hijinks, the fate of the land of
Nothing hinges on Nathan and an unlikely team of magical beings to save the
day—perfect for fans of Amulet and Estranged.

Welcome
to Nothing! Despite its name, this is a fantastic land where humans and magical
volken coexist peacefully—at least they try . . .

This is
the tale of Nathan, an ordinary human (or so he thinks) living an ordinary life
(or so he wishes). Everything changes when he meets Haven, a mysterious
creature who is neither human nor volken. Oh, and the two of them are being
chased by volken mercenaries—a grumpy wolf named Bardou and a delightful crow
named Sina.

Nathan
soon learns he has mysterious powers, even though humans aren’t supposed to
have magic. But there’s no time to dwell on that because this discovery sets
the group on a perilous quest across windswept terrain, through haunted
forests, and in ancient tombs. Nathan and his unlikely friends must prevent an
impending war and defeat a dark evil to save their land.

No pressure, of
course. If they fail, everything will turn into, well . . . nothing.

"Loaded with humor and thrilling magical combat, this spin on the chosen one trope wrings out a lot of fun... strong characters and intriguing worldbuilding make for a gratifying hero’s journey." - Kirkus Reviews

Green and Rodriguez’s unique visual style depicts familiar fantasy settings with a cinematic sensibility (think a tactile, immersive Studio Ghibli film), bringing their world to life with magnificent lighting and quality… constant verbal jests, visual puns, and all manner of humorous allusions… A new contender for Kazu Kibuishi and Ethan M. Aldridge die-hards (with a higher page count to boot) - School Library Journal

"In vibrant lineless art that’s reminiscent of classic animated films, Green and Rodriguez bring the castles, towns, and forests in the world of Nothing to life with expressive characters, a smattering of Spanish and Esperanto, and a strong cliffhanger that leaves room for a second installment." - Publishers Weekly
