About The Book

A captivating middle grade fantasy graphic novel that combines magical beasts, mystery, adventure, and stunning full-color artwork. This enchanting series opener introduces a world where mythical creatures are real—and understanding them may be the key to solving a dangerous mystery.

Welcome to the Island of Vorn—where griffins soar, vampires roam, and only the most promising young cryptozoologists are invited to study the world's most extraordinary creatures.

For as long as she can remember, Sorceline has had a knack for the study of mythical creatures. Now a student at Professor Archibald Balzar’s prestigious school of cryptozoology, she’s eager to test her skills and earn a spot as one of Balzar’s apprentices. But for all her knowledge of gorgons, vampires, and griffins, Sorceline is mystified by her fellow humans. While she excels in her studies, she quickly clashes with her classmates, revealing her fiery temper.

When one of her rivals suddenly disappears, Sorceline must set aside her anger and join the quest to find her. But the mystery only deepens, leading Sorceline on a journey far darker and more personal than she expected . . .

Filled with magical creatures, intriguing secrets, and unforgettable adventures, Sorceline delivers a fresh twist on fantasy-school stories while exploring friendship, courage, and self-discovery.
