Synopsis

Le blaireau est de retour! Alone in Grandville, Detective Inspector LeBrock stalks a growing religious cult led by a charismatic unicorn messiah who, along with his con-men partners, are responsible for horrific mass murder. With Paris in the grip of the mysterious crime lord Tiberius Koenig and increasingly violent attacks by human terrorists, can LeBrock stop the inevitable slide into fascism? And could these conditions all be the manipulations of a centuries-old conspiracy to throw the world into war?

From the imagination of Bryan Talbot comes Grandville Noël, the fourth installment of the acclaimed steampunk fantasy series.

Review:

"There's an argument to be made for saying that Bryan Talbot is the most important comic creator in Great Britain." -- Teddy Jamieson Herald "The latest well-crafted and slightly strange instalment in Bryan Talbot's Grandville series of graphic novels." Big Issue "Fabulous artistic puns, stunning page lay-outs, action sequences on a sky-gondola, puffins in dinner jackets - the perfect diversion for a chilly evening." Crack
