Full Description
"For a gripping, near-future
science-fiction tale, I highly recommend Trees." --
Kirkus
Ten years after they landed.
All over the world. And they did nothing, standing on the surface of the Earth
like trees, exerting their silent pressure on the world, as if there were no-one
here and nothing under foot. Ten years since we learned that there is
intelligent life in the universe, but that they did not recognize us as
intelligent or alive.
Trees, a new
science fiction graphic novel by Warren Ellis (Transmetropolitan,
Red) and Jason Howard (Super Dinoasaur, Astounding
Wolf-Man) looks at a near-future world where life goes on in the shadows of
the Trees: in China, where a young painter arrives in the "special
cultural zone" of a city under a Tree; in Italy, where a young woman under
the menacing protection of a fascist gang meets an old man who wants to teach
her terrible skills; and in Svalbard, where a research team is discovering, by
accident, that the Trees may not be dormant after all, and the awful threat they
truly represent.
