'Aime de Jongh's stunning reimagining has a visceral impact all its own .' The Times

'Beautifully imagined ... so poignant and relevant.' CHRIS MOULD

'Just as compelling and evocative as Golding's world-shaking masterpiece.' Comics Review

Before The Stand and The Hunger Games, before Battle Royale and Yellowjackets, there was Lord of the Flies.

A plane crashes on a desert island. The only survivors, a group of schoolboys. By day, they explore the dazzling beaches. By night, they are haunted by nightmares of a primitive beast and of what they've lost.

'There aren't any grown-ups anywhere.'

Orphaned by society, they must forge their own; but it isn't long before the group is split, and their innocent games take a dangerous turn.

'What are we? Humans? Or Animals?'

For the first time, from acclaimed artist Aime de Jongh, comes the stunning graphic novel adaptation of this classic story, one of the BBC's '100 Novels that shaped our World'.
