It is night-time in the forest. The sky is black, studded with countless stars.
A campfire is crackling, and the storytelling has begun. Stories about love and
wisdom, conflict and power, dreams and identity, courage and adventure, survival
against all odds, and hope against all hope – they have all come to the fore in
a stream of words, gestures, song and dance. The warm, cheerful radiance of the
campfire has awoken the storyteller in all those present. Even the trees and the
earth and the animals of the forest seem to have fallen silent, captivated, bewitched.

Inspired by this enduring relationship between a campfire and the stories it evokes,
we began publishing in 2008, under the Campfire imprint, with the vision of creating
graphic novels of the finest quality to entertain and educate our readers. Our writers,
editors, artists and colourists share a deep passion for good stories and the art
of storytelling, so our books are well researched, beautifully illustrated and wonderfully
written to create a most enjoyable reading experience.

Our graphic novels are published in four exciting categories: |
|
|
|
The Classics
category showcases popular and timeless literature, which has been faithfully adapted
for today’s readers. We aim at retaining the flavour of the era in our adaptations,
while simplifying the language to make them more reader-friendly. In this way, we
introduce our young readers to the literary world with the aid of brilliant graphics,
without intimidating them with difficult vocabulary. Titles in the
Originals
category feature imaginative new characters and intriguing plots, and will be highly
anticipated and appreciated by lovers of fiction. Our Mythology titles
tap into the vast library of epics, myths, and legends from India and abroad, presenting
not just tales from time immemorial, but also bringing to the fore their modern-day
relevance. And our
Biography titles explore the life and times of eminent personalities
from around the world, in a manner that is both inspirational and personal.

|
|
Crafted by a new generation of talented artists and writers, all our graphic novels
boast cutting-edge artwork, an engaging narrative, and have universal and lasting
appeal.
