Books by Enki Bilal

For thirty years, Alcide Nikopol has floated alone in space, sentenced to cryopreservation. When he finally returns to Earth, the year is 2023, and the world has been ravaged by two nuclear wars! But the strangest change in the world floats above Paris a giant pyramid, home to the recently returned Egyptian Gods.

As the 20th Century draws to a close, so too does the Eastern European Communist era... but with it brings terrorist attacks, ageing militant groups coming out of retirement and those who will stop at nothing to preserve their way of life! Stunningly realized in Bilal's incomparable style.

Enki Bilal presents the lives behind many of The Louvre's lesser-known portraits, and their often violent demises, in this dramatic act of graphic historical re-enactment.
