The Atlantis Chronicles #3
In "Chapter 4: The Flowering of Youth, the Rightful Sinking of Age," Peter David and Esteban Maroto deliver a gripping chapter of The Atlantis Chronicles, exploring the emotional and political tensions within Atlantean society as Cora, Orin’s daughter, comes of age. With Bazil and Dardanus both vying for her hand, the fragile peace of the court cracks under the weight of past trauma and forbidden desire—culminating in a night of violence that will echo through the kingdom. The story unfolds with haunting detail, rendered in Maroto’s expressive art and Kachelhofer’s rich coloring, all framed by Maroto’s evocative cover.
