Op weg naar Compostella #2

Servais brings an eerie grandeur to this second volume of the pilgrimage series, with a towering skeletal figure — the Ankou, death's own herald — dominating the cover as a brooding presence above two young pilgrims set against the misty silhouette of Mont Saint-Michel. The subtitle De Ankou, de Duivel en de Novice hints at spiritual dangers ahead, and the scallop shell at the Ankou's staff marks the sacred road to Compostella as anything but safe. This 2015 Dupuis release promises a journey where faith and dread walk side by side.
