A return to a world changed by absence

In this ninth volume of *Monstress*, Maika, Kippa, and Ren return to their world to find that a year has passed—and that Zinn has fallen back into the Lord Doctor’s grasp. The story gathers its conflict around divided loyalties, the consequences of betrayal, and an effort to stop a destructive campaign spreading across the Known World. The pirate-controlled Spice Islands provide a place for the group to regroup before confronting the danger. Collecting issues #49–54, the volume continues the series’ epic-fantasy storyline and its focus on the ties between Maika and those around her.
