A rescue mission turns into a reckoning as the line between hero and villain blurs in the sands of the post-apocalypse…Nakama Press invites readers into a spellbinding realm of shattered kingdoms, ancient secrets, and a power too immense to contain. Pandola—the acclaimed YA post-apocalyptic fantasy from Hong Kong-based manga artist Keung Chi Kit—arrives in English for the first time, presented in a newly translated edition by Book Buddy Media!

In a world where gods and mortals collide, destiny takes the form of a single boy. When a mysterious artifact awakens the power of Pandola, young heroes are thrust into a battle that will decide the fate of their realm. Across enchanted forests, corrupted kingdoms, and ancient ruins, they must uncover long-buried secrets—and face enemies who would rather see the world burn than lose their grip on power.

Keung Chi Kit’s worldbuilding is nothing short of operatic. Blending myth, magic, and the raw grit of a world clawing its way out of apocalypse, Pandola follows a young boy whose fate becomes entangled with a mysterious artifact—one capable of reshaping the very truth of their world. From enchanted forests to corrupted empires, the journey unfolds with cinematic scale and emotional weight, pulling readers into a destiny that refuses to be simple… or safe.

Delivering a bold adventure, Pandola immerses readers in a story where the line between hero and villain is never as it seems, and every revelation brings the characters closer to a reckoning centuries in the making.

Pandola offers sprawling adventure, intimate character work, and a mythos that rewards readers who love to uncover the hidden threads of a fractured world. It arrives in bookstores, comic shops, and digital platforms on May 5, 2026.
