<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Enslaved for generations, Canto's people once had hearts. Now they have clocks. They are forbidden to love, yet Canto loves a little tin girl. When slavers damage her clock beyond repair, Canto embarks on a journey through his strange and fantastic world to bring back her heart. As he faces fearsome creatures and finds unlikely allies, can he conquer the mysterious figure who has taken their hearts to save the one he loves?<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>Once, a little tin slave with a clock for a heart broke all the rules--he found love, took a name, and escaped his masters to go on an epic journey to save his beloved. Along the way, he met strange allies and terrifying enemies and, ultimately, though his adventure didn't turn out as planned, he returned to his people and led them to freedom.</b> <p/>Now the fan-favorite all-ages comic fantasy continues with book two! <p/>The freedom that Canto won so desperately is in danger, as he discovers his people's clocks will stop unless they return to captivity. He and his friends Falco, Rikta, and Veratta embark on a new adventure to save the lives of all their people. On their quest, they'll encounter old friends, relentless monsters, and the village of the mysterious Hollow Men. Will Canto and his friends lift the curse and save their people before time runs out? <p/>Collects <i>Canto II</i> issues #1-5 plus the <i>Clockwork Fairies</i> one-shot.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>One of the best comic series in recent memory. <b>--CBR.com</b> <p/>"The story has a powerful identity and depth. The cuteness of the design can easily lead to misconceptions about the emotional power the story has." <b>--But Why Tho? podcast</b> <p/>"It continues to be the best all-ages comic out there. Scratch that-just one of the best comic books out there, period, that just happens to be all-ages." <b>--Word of the Nerd</b> <p/>"<i>Canto II: The Hollow Men</i> has all the bones of a soon-to-be classic fantasy tale built on an already established and interesting world." <b>--Adventures in Poor Taste</b> <p/>"This is a comic which goes beyond simple stories and is steadily creating a modern heroic myth." <b>--Comic Crusaders</b><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>David Booher</b> grew up in a small town outside Cleveland, Ohio and became a Los Angeles lawyer before realizing writing was more fun. When he's not writing about the oppression of people without super powers...or a dude who chases aliens...or the creepiest parts of human nature...you can find him geeking out at comic conventions and marveling at how his husband and their adopted greyhound continue to put up with him. He grew up reading Stephen King, watching <i>The Goonies</i> and <i>Nightmare on Elm Street</i>, eating Lucky Charms in front of <i>He-Man</i>, trading Garbage Pail Kids, playing Nintendo, and going outside. <p/><b>Drew Zucker</b> is a New York based artist and 2010 graduate of The Savannah College of Art and Design. Having co-created multiple comic projects he eventually found his way to the co-creation of <i>Canto</i>. He currently lives in NYC where he works as a medical worker by training and continues to produce comics.
