Light Children, The Invalid - Book One

The Allumen have eyes that are warm glowing lights. Far overhead, their world is capped in vine-covered stone. The shimmering, luminescent fruit of the dense vines provide a viridian radiance to the entire land, a large island that slopes away on all sides. Their island is surrounded, not by oceanic waters, but by an abyssal sea of darkness. It is the Allumen's belief that this encircling emptiness extends infinitely outward and downward.
Westover Lake Orphanage for Abandoned Youth, which offers refuge to forsaken Allumen children, is where this epic tale begins. On the eve of graduation, six friends struggle with the fact that two of their oldest are about to graduate and leave the others behind. But just as they devise an exciting plan for one last memorable adventure, a bizarre secret is uncovered. Fascination turns to fear when they realize this discovery may mean that Eli, a sick child new to the orphanage, may be in great danger.
Do Herschel, Bruno, Tisdale, Maud, Hortense, and Sybil survive? Do they save Eli? Can they band together before darkness gains the upper hand? Find out in this brand-new graphic novel fantasy adventure!
