Banana Sioule Vol. 1: Helena - Paperback

by Michael Sanlavaille (Author)

First rule of the Sioule: there are no rules.

Of all the international disciplines, the Sioule is the most violent and most dangerous--but also the most media-friendly. This brutal cocktail of rugby and dodgeball attracts millions of viewers to each match, and social networks go wild for the players who become international celebrities. From the far reaches of her countryside, Hélèna is far from interested in any of this madness. When she is not helping her father on the family farm, she goes camping by the sea with her friends. Life is peaceful. But her father dreams of another destiny for her, a better life than cleaning up dung! One day, when a stray leather ball catches her eye and triggers something new in her . . . what if her future was at the Superior School of Sioule? Nothing is certain. To make a place for yourself in this ultra-testosterone-fueled environment, you'll have to use your elbows and your knuckles!
