Rune: The Tale of a Thousand Faces

In today’s podcast, Dave tells us about a book called Rune: The Tale of a Thousand Faces. It’s the first in a graphic novel series by author-illustrator Carlos Sanchez. It’s a great choice for middle-school and older kids – particularly those with an interest in D&D-style games and fantasy worlds. “Chiri and best friend Dai live in an orphanage right next to the deepest, darkest forest. On a scavenging mission to find some amazing new ingredients for her many culinary experiments, Chiri plunges both her and her best friend into the secret kingdom of Puddin', a secret place plagued by the Thousand Faces Monster and inhabited by all sorts of magical people and critters. Befriending witches, bards, ogres and sorcerers, can our two protagonists make it home and more importantly, can they evade the darkness that has awoken on their arrival?” Find this book in the FVRL collection: https://fvrl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S21C1922816
