This album contains the first two episodes in the series:
On the Trail of War and The Angel of Love.
On the trail of war.
End of 1940. Ethiopia. A private army forms around Koïnsky, a Polish soldier working for the British army. The aim? To bring together Commonwealth troops and Ethiopian patriots to create the conditions for an uprising against the Italian colonialists, supported by the Germans and the French of the Vichy regime.
The angel of love and the angel of death .
January 1941, Karthoum, Sudan. The military strategy for the reconquest of Ethiopia finally becomes clear. It is during this episode that Koïnsky meets Stella, an Italian lieutenant with whom he sympathizes despite their belonging to opposing camps. Chased by brigands, they are saved by the Beni Amar guide Cush. The main character in this series is Lieutenant Koinsky, a Pole who joined the British army after his country’s surrender. We follow him on a series of adventures and encounters (Judittah Canaan, Cush, Stella, etc.) in which we recognize Pratt’s style, reminiscent of the adventures of Corto Maltese. Koinsky, however, ‘is much tougher, more modern, less anarchistic than Corto, which makes him, in a way, closer to us.’ (Didier Platteau, in the introduction to the book).
