Greetings! It is that time again to showcase some of our new titles added to our graphic novels family. For an expanded list of graphic novels, check out our Adult [2] and Young Adult [3] new non-fiction titles.
I Kill Giants [4] by Joe Kelly [9]. Barbara is an angry elementary-school girl who is known as a freak and claims to be a killer of giants. She faces bullies and storms with no fear, but cannot face what she hides from at home.
Market Day [5] by James Sturm [10]. Mendleman is a simple man who provides for his family by selling his handcrafted rugs. When he is forced to sell his rugs to an emporium, he begins to reach his breaking point.
Not Simple [6] by Natsume Ono [11]. In the traditional manga style, the story follows Ian, a young man with a fractured family history, and his travels from Australia to England to America in the hope of realizing his dreams and reuniting with his beloved sister.
Pride and Prejudice and Zombies: the Graphic Novel [7] by Seth Grahame-Greene [12] and others. This is an adaptation of an adaptation of Jane Austen [13]'s Pride and Prejudice [14] (confusing, isn't it?!). The dead are rising in England, and it's up to fearsome warrior Elizabeth Bennet to dispatch them.
Y Square Plus [8] by Judith Park [15]. In the sequel to Y Square, Yagate was more than happy to help his best friend Yoshitaka with his girl troubles, but now it's Yoshitaka's turn to return the favor
