Lord of the Flies

'The first book that reached out of the pages and seized me by the throat.' STEPHEN KING
'Beautifully imagined, it immerses you in the heat of the tropics with its detail and palette and feels so poignant and relevant. Phenomenal.' CHRIS MOULD
Before The Stand and The Hunger Games, before Battle Royale and Yellowjackets, there was Lord of the Flies.
A plane crashes on a desert island. The only survivors, a group of schoolboys. By day, they explore the dazzling beaches. By night, they are haunted by nightmares of a primitive beast and of what they've lost.
'There aren't any grown-ups anywhere.'
Orphaned by society, they must forge their own; but it isn't long before the group is split, and their innocent games take a dangerous turn.
'What are we? Humans? Or Animals?'
For the first time, from acclaimed artist Aime de Jongh, comes the stunning graphic novel adaptation of this classic story, one of the BBCs '100 Novels that shaped our World'.
