The Mannamong - Volume 1

Legends once spoke of the mannamong, gentle nature spirits formed by Mother Nature to guide, heal, and protect humanity. Over time, those stories faded into myth. Yet the mannamong never abandoned their purpose. Hidden from sight, they continue working to maintain balance... even as their own realm begins to weaken.

Kali (kay-lee) Teal, a young girl who has heard of the mannamong through her mother's bedtime stories, finds comfort in them as she wrestles with a severe illness. Only to discover they do exist when one cures her in her dream. Revealing a rogue mannamong is the cause of her intense fevers! This leaves her to wonder if the mannamong were made to help humans; why is this one haunting her?

As Kali seeks answers, she is pulled into a hidden world where spirits walk alongside mortals, ancient bonds are tested, and forgotten truths rise to the surface. Her journey will push her toward the courage she never knew she had and force her to confront the mysterious forces that threaten both realms.

The Mannamong - Volume 1 is the first book in a heartfelt middle-grade fantasy graphic novel about hope, courage and the unseen connections that bind the living world to the spiritual one.
