The mighty Stone King roams the landscape…
 

When you become an adult, you have to prove yourself, at least that's how it works for the Stoneport thieves. Ave has decided to illegally harvest healing moss from the Stone King, a mighty giant who roams the lands. Her theft goes even better than she could have dreamed. The biggest gem she's ever seen is her prize.
 
But what she thought would buy her a ticket to adventure and a better life, brings disaster instead. Now her home is in danger and fixing her mistakes is the city's only hope. Eisner nominated for Best Digital Comic, comiXology Originals presents this high-stakes adventure caper from writer Kel McDonald (Sorcery 101, Misfits of Avalon) and artist Tyler Crook (Petrograd, Harrow County).
 
Kel McDonald has been working in comics for over a decade–most of that time has been spent on their webcomic Sorcery 101. More recently, they have organized the Cautionary Fables and Fairytales anthology series and written the Eisner nominated mini-series, The Stone King. They have also worked on the comics Buffy: The High School Years. They recently finished a creator owned series Misfits of Avalon for Dark Horse Comics. They’re currently working on their self-published series The City Between.
