Istanbul, 1591: the mighty Sultan Murad III has been robbed! The Staff of Moses, used at the parting of the Red Sea, has been stolen from his private collection of religious artifacts in the Topkapi Palace--and the furious Sultan wants it back. To track down the thieves, an elite band of hand-picked warriors is assembled. Among them is Awa, daughter of a noble family form West Africa, and friend Will--kidnapped from London slums at the age of five and now a seasoned and fearless young soldier. The warriors' task is to bring the Staff home--or not come home at all. Their urgent quest takes them from the domed roofs of Ottoman Istanbul, along the crowded canals of Venice, and all the way to the court of Queen Elizabeth 1--in rainy England--in what becomes a daring Mission (almost) Impossible for the 16th century.

NEW YORK TIMES EDITORS’ CHOICE • An “irreverent yet profound” (Publishers Weekly) retelling of the Book of Genesis, starring a female God, from the acclaimed New Yorker cartoonist and author of Passing for Human WINNER OF THE NATIONAL JEWISH BOOK AWARD • ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR: The New Yorker In this ambitious and transcendent graphic novel, Liana Finck turns her keen eye to none other than the Old Testament, reimagining the story of Genesis with God as a woman, Abraham as a resident of New York City, and Rebekah as a robot, among many other delightful twists. In Finck's retelling, the millennia-old stories of Adam and Eve, Abraham and Isaac, and Jacob and Esau haunt the pages like familiar but partially forgotten nursery rhymes―transmuted by time but still deeply resonant. With her trademark insightfulness, wry humor, and supple, moving visual style, Finck accentuates the latent sweetness and timeless wisdom of the original text, infusing it with wit and whimsy while retaining every ounce of its spiritual heft. Let There Be Light is proof that old stories can live forever, whether as ancient scripture or as a series of profound and enchanting cartoons. The Book of Genesis is about some of the most fundamental, eternally pertinent questions that we can ask: What does it mean to be human? What is the purpose of our lives? And how should we treat one another? The stories that attempt to answer these questions are an immediate link with the people who first told them. Unable to fathom the holiness and preciousness of that notion, or put it into words, Finck set out to depict it. The result is a true story of creation, rendered by one of our most innovative creators. LONGLISTED FOR THE CAROL SHIELDS PRIZE FOR FICTION
