关于此电子书

Five women from various backgrounds are brought together by fate to fight as allies for their survival. A retired schoolteacher, an Indian who's handy with a bow, a young, immigrant widow from London, a brothel worker who's made off with the till and a fourteen-year-old slave who's been put in a cage. This unlikely band of adventurers must fight off the violence men resort to when caught in greed's ubiquitous grip. They'll do it with arrows, pies, brooms, pots, knitting-needles, and a lethal revolver that becomes even more dangerous in the hands of the sharpest-shooter of them all: a teenager who's been whipped, locked in a cage and freed only to fall victim to pneumonia. These women have got each other's backs and don't take kindly to the worst mankind has to offer.

作者简介

Author Olivier Bocquet has worked as a highway gas station attendant, an events photographer, the manager at a restaurant in Montmartre, a deliveryman, a translator, and even a chick-sexing specialist. In addition to these occupations, he has written programs for children's television channels, created previews for TV shows, written a short film, worked on advertisements, and completed a prize-winning thriller novel called "Turpitudes" (2010). Today, Olivier Bocquet writes comics, including the three-part series "La colère de Fantômas" (Dargaud, 2013) and the acclaimed prehistoric adventure series "FRNCK," published by Dupuis starting in 2016 ("FRNK," Europe Comics, 2017). In 2020, Olivier Bocquet started the "Ladies With Guns" adventure with Anlor, a western published by Dargaud in 2022 (Europe Comics in English).

The need to draw comics has always been part of her life, but Anlor started off in a different narrative form by working for 10 years in animation and stop-motion as an animator and director. She eventually decided to turn towards comics in 2010, with the trilogy "Les Innocents Coupables" published by Bamboo, with a script by Laurent Galandon. She then met the scriptwriter Aurélien Ducoudray, with whom she created the diptychs "Amère Russie" (Prix St Michel for the best album, Brussels, 2015), "À Coucher Dehors," and "Camp Poutine," all hybrid stories between adventure and social chronicle. In 2020, Olivier Bocquet and Anlor started the "Ladies With Guns" adventure, a western published by Dargaud in 2022 (Europe Comics in English).
