Description
Description
The Monarchs are the greatest fighters in the entire galaxy. Their popularity has motivated many to train with hopes of one day being able to claim the glowing crown atop the Monarch's head!
For many the thought of besting a Monarch and taking their crown is exhilarating. Some will make it and many others won't, but that is the risk many will take to attain immense power.
Ja'Khari and Pepper, two kids from a human settlement known as the Bloks, have always dreamed of becoming Monarchs. Ja'Khari, a kid with immense strength, and his friend Pepper, a loud-mouthed cheetah boy, have started a beef with the local bully, Jug.
Will Ja'Khari be able to best the brute or will Jug shut the boys up for good?

IndieReader, Starred Review
"Joshua Bullock's Monarchs (Volume 1) is a bright, engaging opening chapter in an ongoing tale of aspirant superstar galactic fighters."
SLJ Review
"This manga title takes readers on an exhilarating journey to a world where power and prestige are embodied in crowns awarded to the galaxy's best fighters. What distinguishes this book is its richly imagined world and fresh perspective on the genre, infusing the traditional shonen formula with cultural references and diverse cast not often found in manga. This book stays true to the spirit of shonen manga while carving out its own unique identity."
