Stacking the Shelves #10

 

The Stacking the Shelves meme is hosted by the Reading Reality blog. It was originally hosted by the Team Tynga's Reviews blog and now is solely hosted by Reading Reality. I am looking forward to reading the new graphic novel by Rutu Modan. Tunnels was published on Tuesday and I am waiting to receive it in the mail. Modan is one of my favorite comic writers. In the Tunnels story there is a race to find the Ark of the Covenant and it explores the ethics of the international antiquities trade.  

When a great antiquities collector is forced to donate his entire collection to the Hebrew University in Jerusalem, Nili Broshi sees her last chance to finish an archeological expedition that began decades earlier.  Motivated by the desire to reinstate her father's legacy as an archeologist, Nili enlists the assistance of a ragtag crew - a religious nationalist, her traitorous brother and her childhood Palestinian friend. As Nili's father slips deeper into dementia, warring factions close in on and fight over the Ark of the Covenant.

Where are you mail?
