Synopsis

Thor is a soft-spoken boy with an over-powering father. He is quite lonely and usually lets others take the lead. At school he is an easy target for the bullies. That all changes one day when he finds an eaglet, who is dependent on him to survive. Now, Thor gets to be in charge for change. But eagles are not so easy to tame...

Winner of the Danish comic book prize, the Ping Prize 2024, in the category "Best children's book comic".

Reviews

"EAGLE is about family, friendship and first love and it is one of those amazing books that everyone can get something out of. It is a really gorgeously illustrated tale, and with its 842 pages it is apparently one of the longest graphic novels ever in Denmark. However, you should not be put off by the epic format, because the book is more show than tell, with relatively little text in the form of direct speech and sound words. It makes the book very easy to read, without compromising on the exciting and dramatic plot." – (Litteratursiden (The Literature Page)
