– The trilogy Niourk belongs to the collection The Universes of Stefan Wul, adapted from the work of Stefan Wul .
– The graphic imagination of the creator of Aquablue fully resonates with the work of Wul, and Olivier Vatine offers us here an epic and dynamic story, a journey into this abandoned world where Humanity fell back to the iron age.
“In a post-apocalyptic Earth where Humanity has regressed to the primitive stage after a nuclear catastrophe that dried up the oceans and gave birth to mutated chimeras, a few tribes survive in the wild. Among them, the horde of Thôz, where lives the black child, rejected by his family. When the old sorcerer of the tribe condemns him to death, the black child sets off for Niourk, the city of the gods, where only ruins and strange mechanisms remain, vestiges of the civilization of the twentieth century. Mutant octopuses, phantom megalopolis and Venusian androids await you!”
