Description

Set in an alternate matriarchal 1900’s Asia, in a richly imagined world of art deco-inflected steam punk, MONSTRESS tells the story of a teenage girl who is struggling to live to tell the tale the trauma of war, and who shares a mysterious psychic link with a monster of tremendous power, a connection to be able to turn out to be them both and cause them to the target of both human and otherworldly powers.
