With this debut, Vandepitte proves that we can expect a great deal from him in the future. A beautiful range of colours and a fine pen complete the picture. He has a field day portraying a fantastic abandoned metropolis full of spectacular buildings, as he juggles with perspectives and formidable panoramas. Inspired by the real Centralia, a mining town in Pennsylvania where an underground mine fire has been burning since 1962, Miel Vandepitte creates a world full of adventure, excitement and improbable characters. Amidst it all, two young orphan girls become modern-day Robin Hoods, helping the most needy – those whose voices have been repressed by the system.

Both Ysabelle and the sword are determined to change their fate, and to do so they must become allies on a long journey. The enchanted weapon now suffers from a bad case of boredom, while Arthur’s daughter, the Princess Ysabelle, is wondering how to flee the marriage her father has arranged with the vile Baron of Cumber. He owes his former glory to the magic sword the wizard Merlin forged for him in order to slay the hordes of demons who came to invade the kingdom of Pendragon.
