Rebel Genius

Rebel Genius

Descriere

A new middle grade fantasy-adventure series from Michael Dante Di Martino, the co-creator of the hit animated shows Avatar: The Last Airbender and The Legend of Korra In twelve-year-old Giacomo's Renaissance-inspired world, art is powerful, dangerous, and outlawed. A few artists possess Geniuses, birdlike creatures that are the living embodiment of an artist's creative spirit. Those caught with one face a punishment akin to death, so when Giacomo discovers he has a Genius, he knows he's in serious trouble. Luckily, he finds safety in a secret studio where young artists and their Geniuses train in sacred geometry to channel their creative energies as weapons. But when a murderous artist goes after the three Sacred Tools--objects that would allow him to destroy the world and everyone in his path--Giacomo and his friends must risk their lives to stop him. Praise for Rebel Genius "Giacomo's lush and intricate world does not disappoint . . . Give this one to fans of Lisa Mc Mann's The Unwanteds." Hansen's peppy cartoons provide an up-close look at all the smaller-than-life action in this high-energy escapade." --School Library Journal "Di Martino masterfully weaves a thrilling action-adventure epic into an imaginative and terrifying world." --Bryan Konietzko, co-creator of Avatar: The Last Airbender and The Legend of Korra "Rebel Genius is a natural extension of Michael Dante Di Martino's work on Avatar: The Last Airbender: charming young heroes, magical creatures, an innovative magic system, and mysteries galore. There is so much to love about this book " --Gene Yang, National Ambassador for Young People's Literature and author of American Born Chinese "Di Martino delivers a magical take on the power of art. With a cast that will charm you and an innovative new world to get lost in, Rebel Genius is a gift for fantasy lovers and a treasure for anyone who has ever tried to pick up a brush or a pen and make something new. A lively, thrilling spin on the struggle to create." --Le
