Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

When eight former felons are left stranded on a deserted island with a murderous backpack strapped to them and nothing but a cartoon to help them through a deadly, constantly changing environment filled with danger around every corner, they have no choice but to resort to violence in order to survive. Nature's Labyrinth is a battle royale filled with high-octane action, off-kilter humour, cutthroat reality TV-style betrayals and ever-shifting alliances, and totally unpredictable twists and turns!

In the middle of the ocean lies a remote island complex lined with traps and an ever-changing landscape. Created by a mysterious man known only as β€œAhab”, the island was designed to test the wills of the world’s most notorious criminals. In a battle royale style game, eight violent felons will fight for survival and to the death over the course of three days of relentless action. The winner receives a wealth of riches and complete anonymity, but at the cost of keeping their silence about the island’s existence. What Ahab doesn’t know is that someone is on to him. Someone has infiltrated his island with the intention of revealing the truth about this twisted game.

Nature's Labyrinth is an all-new six-issue mini-series from writer Zac Thompson (Yondu, The Brother of All Men, Undone by Blood) and Bayleigh Underwood (It Took Luke, The Sixth Borough).
