Another installment in the Battle for Vermonia manga series.  The evil Lord Uro's soldiers have imprisoned Mel and her friends - Naomi, Doug and Jim - are intent on freeing her in order to continue their journey to fulfil the prophecy of the four warriors and save Vermonia. 

To do so, they have to learn how to cope with their own special powers, becoming one with their warrior spirits.  In this book, Jim hears the call of the winged panther. Can he learn to use his powers? Nothing is certain - but he knows that everything rests on his attempts to do so. 

Beautifully drawn, this graphic novel series is a visual delight.  It is quite a compelling story line, which will appeal to anyone who enjoys manga stories.
