Max Sparkly's St. Emerly School Comic Book Series
Step into a magical boarding school where every corridor hides a secret, every lesson holds a surprise, and every new adventure begins with a mystery waiting to be solved. Join Max Sparkly, Tilly and their friends as they uncover enchanted clues, hidden passages and extraordinary discoveries in the most magical school by the sea.
Recommended for ages 8–15 (and adults who have always suspected their school would have been much more exciting with secret tunnels, enchanted classrooms and just a little bit of magic).
Max Sparkly™: St. Emerly Boarding School is a beautifully illustrated British comic series for readers aged 8–14 — and adults who still believe boarding schools ought to have secret tunnels.
Set above the enchanting coastal village of St. Emerly, the series follows Max Sparkly, Tilly and their friends at one of the oldest and most extraordinary boarding schools.
At St. Emerly, magic is woven into everyday school life.
Lessons are not always quite what they seem. Unusual creatures wander the grounds. Enchanted objects develop opinions of their own. Portraits whisper. Corridors shift. Ancient legends lie hidden beneath stone staircases, forgotten towers and locked classroom doors.
And wherever something peculiar happens, Max and his friends are usually not far behind.
Every 44-page digital comic tells one complete magical mystery.
A priceless compass may disappear from a locked cabinet. The school portraits might begin passing secret messages. An enchanted greenhouse may refuse to let anyone leave. A bell could ring from a tower that has been sealed for a hundred years.
Max, Tilly and their friends must follow the clues, test their theories, avoid suspicious teachers, outwit magical mishaps and uncover the truth before the mystery causes even greater trouble.
Each issue offers a new adventure with a satisfying beginning, middle and end, so readers can begin anywhere while gradually discovering the wider world, history and secrets of St. Emerly Boarding School.
Blending the warmth and friendship of classic British boarding-school stories with magical fantasy, humour and proper page-turning mystery, this is a school readers will wish they could attend
