Legends of Maui Vol.1 (Paperback)

Two of Maui's legendary exploits - Maui Slows the Sun and Maui Battles Tuna Roa the Giant Eel - are re-told by author/illustrator Jason te Puia in the style of comicbook superheroes such as Superman and Batman. Stunning black and white illustrations and sharp story telling set the scene and give pace to each tale, re-told for a modern audience. Especially suited to early teen readers, the innovative treatment given to these traditional stories and the accompanying trading cards will make them a favourite among all. This is the first in a multi-volume edition planned to follow many more tales, battles and journeys of the mythic figure of Maui.
