Maria Llovet’s EROS/PSYCHE Hardcover · MSRP: $24.99 · Book Release Date: September 29th
The Rose female boarding school is a paradise for young girls…but only if you follow the rules. Because, if you disobey them, you can end up expelled, or even worse, dead. Sara and Silje are two students learning the rules of the school, which includes classes by day…and the casting of curses and spells by night. Love develops between the two, which is tender but threatens to break under the weight of the dark secret society within The Rose. Acclaimed creator Maria Llovet brings readers a surreal, bewitching tale of love, magic, and tragedy in EROS/PSYCHE. The hardcover collection contains the complete series plus a cover gallery and an extras section that fans of Llovet’s work are sure to enjoy.
