Wylde Wings - Kate Ristau

. .

Résumé :
Gwyn Wylde has been waiting for his wings. Before she died, his mom told him he would fly. He knows it's stupid. All those Welsh myths aren't really true. People don't have wings. Until, one day, he does. Wylde Wings is the story of how Gwyn Wylde gets his wings. The illustrated novel takes flight as we follow along on Wylde's adventure. He meets old gods, challenges mythological monsters, and with the help of his friends - dances on the line between life and death. The stories are all true. He'll get his wings, but when the spark returns, the magic flares to life, and the dead will rise.
