A stolen sword and a prophecy put Cleo’s mission in motion

Set in a far-future space adventure, the second *Cleopatra in Space* graphic novel balances academy life with a search beyond its walls. After a thief takes the ancient sword Cleo recovered in the first book, her teachers’ rules keep her at school, where she is also adjusting to popularity and new responsibilities. Learning more about a prophecy that calls her the galaxy’s savior leads her toward the time tablets, whose significance makes them a source of danger if they reach the wrong hands. The setup links personal duties, school restrictions, and a larger question about Cleo’s fate.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Young readers interested in science-fiction graphic novels and space adventures.
  • Readers following the *Cleopatra in Space* series, especially those who know the first volume.
  • Readers who enjoy stories combining academy life, ancient artifacts, and prophecy.
