(A Graphic Novel)

The Raven Boys

'Based on the YA bestseller by Maggie Stiefvater, this pulsating graphic novel combines magic, found family and romance as Blue Sargent follows the privileged students of the title on the quest to find the burial place of a legendary Welsh king.' - Waterstones Best Teenage and Young Adult Books of 2025 
 
Blue Sargent has always felt ordinary. She was born into a family of clairvoyants, but she doesn’t share their gift. Her ‘gift’? A warning: if she kisses her true love, they will die. But who cares; who is there for Blue to love? 
 
Enter Gansey, a rich student from Aglionby, the town’s all-boys private school. Blue has always avoided Aglionby’s ‘Raven Boys’ – their wealth, their privilege, their trouble – that is, until Gansey invites her to join four Raven Boys on their hunt for a legendary Welsh king buried along a nearby ley line. But a strange and shifting world awaits, one far more dangerous than anything they could ever have imagined. 
 
Full of magic, found family and impossible romance, this stunning hardback graphic novel adaptation of a YA classic weaves a thrilling plot around a cast of characters that are impossible to forget.

‘A dizzying paranormal romance’ – LA Times Book Review 
 
The ley lines around Henrietta have been awoken, and nothing will ever be the same for Blue and the Raven Boys. 
 
As Ronan becomes increasingly entangled in his dreams, Gansey is pulled away from Aglionby and Adam makes new friends, Blue and Noah are stuck in the middle. Wrestling with the revelations unearthed in Cabeswater, along with new rivalries, old anxieties and some ominous new faces around town, the group discover that the magic that surrounds them runs far deeper, and far darker, than they’d imagined. 
 
For there is power in Cabeswater, and the Raven Boys aren’t the only ones looking for it.
