Description
One rainy night, Antoine gets dropped off at his grandparents' remote house in the middle of the woods. He's stuck between a doting grandmother and a grandfather openly hostile to his presence, and time crawls by while he waits to hear from his parents. When Antoine ventures out with his grandfather to forage for mushrooms, intergenerational conflict and mysterious forces of nature culminate in a fearsome hunt through the forest that will resolve their differences once and for all.

Strong linework and a limited color palette make this a bittersweet dream to read, both beautiful and heartbreaking. I have complicated feelings about this one, and an overall feeling of sadness. Trumpets of Death is a brilliant book.
Christina S, Reviewer
Honestly stunning, the art style was beautiful, the color choices were enchanting, and the story was engaging the whole way through. When this is released I would heavily consider picking up a copy just to see all of the art in person.

An absolutely beautiful graphic novel about growing up and mushrooms. The art is fantastic, and I loved the idea of a magic mushroom (not that kind) holding the ability for transformation. Pretty fantastic, not gonna lie!

In the best way possible, what did I just read? prepare they self for a shrooms induced fever dream. I will be thinking about this for a while. while the story was a bit abstract, I truly love an underdog story. and I love a full circle moment. there were definitely some themes in this that were subtle in a way of "wow, this could apply to this... or this... or this." hence why I'll be thinking about this for ages.
the illustrations were different. aside from the color pallet. it almost gave walking dead vibes. but the color pallet is really what made this very special.
