In this stunning graphic novel Soup must battle her evil boss in a fantastical cooking competition.
“Perfect for fans of Heartstopper, this gorgeous graphic novel combines gentle romance, brilliant characters and fun fantasy elements - older middle grade readers will love this.”
~Sarah
At seventeen, Soup is at a crossroads, eager to make her mark on the world, yet reluctant to leave the restaurant she calls home. The last thing on her to-do list is to overthrow the patriarchy, but when her elven boss snaps at her she begins to see his pattern of abuse, starting in the kitchen. Something's got to give, and the answer is simple: a bet for the restaurant.
If Soup wins the cooking competition, she'll claim the business and protect her village. If she loses, she'll have to leave her home and stand by as the food community she loves is razed to the ground.
With friends and chosen family rallying around her, Soup has a chance to win. Yet, everyone knows villains don't fight fair and this restaurateur is not going to give up his throne so easily . . .
