In the tradition of Braveheart
and 300 comes Lion of Rora, the true story of Joshua Janavel,
farmer-turned-freedom fighter, who will stop at nothing in his quest to save his
people from tyranny and religious persecution. This painstakingly researched
graphic novel, written by Christos Gage and Ruth Fletcher Gage and featuring
evocative art by Jackie Lewis, chronicles the epic war over faith, freedom, and
family.
