In the French Press
A first novel authored by Tiphaine Siovel, Briseis is a fantasy targeted at teenagers, but not only! Very entertaining, light but with a deep meaning, and joyfully surrealistic, this first act of a 4 book series opens enough exciting leads for us to want to read the rest as soon as possible. In other words: we want more!
