In this graphic novel, two brothers' camping/hiking trip into the heart of an erupting volcano turns increasingly bizarre and treacherous. Unexpectedly reunited with their mother, a renowned volcanologist, they finally get some answers. The pictures vividly capture plot, characters, and setting with bold lines, dramatic colors, and creative special effects that make tangible the brothers' peril.
