L'alliance des Végardes, Skylor, le dernier Guide, volume 1:
At the age of 16, Théophile Salvère learns that he has diabetes. His life changes completely. His hypoglycaemic attacks become regular and violent. Abandoned by those closest to him, persecuted by a classmate, he feels despair engulfing him... An unknown voice whispers in his ear and, whenever he is in danger, a mysterious animal comes to his rescue. Are his dreams confused with reality?
To get back on his feet, Théo joins a camp in the Jura mountains. At first indecisive, he ends up immersing himself in the strange forest that surrounds him, its fragility and its strength. What he discovers then turns his life upside down once again: the Vegardes, guardians of the natural order, choose him and help him to control his illness, the profound significance of which he discovers. But dark forces threaten them, ready to strike like lightning in the middle of a storm...
A breathtaking quest for initiation, carried along by endearing characters, which manages to anchor fantasy in reality through major ecological issues.
