Our illustrators Francesco Bongiorni and Isabel Seliger collaborated on the special edition of »The Swarm« with German author Frank Schätzing. The science fiction thriller became a bestseller worldwide and sold millions of copies. In February 2023, the special edition was published with an illustrated cover and removable graphic prints.

Mutated worm colonies, contaminated drinking water, a mysterious glow from the depths - mankind feels threatened. The theme fits perfect with Isabel's preference for dystopian images.

German channel ZDF is currently showing the 8-part TV series on the book. The topic is also highly up-to-date. On the first weekend in March 2023, the member states of the United Nations finally agreed on an agreement to protect the world's oceans.
