A young adult graphic mystery with an apocalyptic premise

Jackie Sonnenberg’s graphic novel brings together Father Atticus, whose visions warn of a coming evil, and Mary, a girl whose bond with a lamb is tied to a mysterious Voice. The description sets up a conflict between prophecy and a threat that Atticus has not fully recognized, while Mary and the lamb pursue a path connected to freeing the Voice from Hell. Its mystery rests on the gap between what Atticus foresees and the form the danger takes, framed by themes of loyalty, isolation, and supernatural evil.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Teens and young adults interested in graphic novels.
  • Readers who enjoy mystery and detective stories with supernatural or apocalyptic elements.
  • Readers interested in stories involving prophecy, a mysterious voice, and an unusual bond between a girl and a lamb.

Book overview

The Antichrist has been born and Father Atticus knows it.

Overwhelmed with visions of a great evil that will bring horror and destruction to earth, Father Atticus is locked up in an asylum. But outside, the terror rears its head... and it's in a form he never saw coming.

Mary was wicked the moment she was born, and as she grew up, the worse she got. She is thought a monster by her parents, teacher, and classmates until she makes a very important friend: a lamb born just like her. The lamb's loyalty is undying, just as Mary's loyalty to the Voice is undying.

Mary knows the Voice is the master she was born to serve, and the lamb will serve her in kind. Together, they embark on the very path to destruction Father Atticus foretold, intending to free the Voice from Hell.

Father Atticus must stop his visions from coming true, though he's never gotten a clear picture of just who he's up against...
