"What an impressive work! I absolutely loved this book by Johanna Zaïre! She effortlessly draws us into this psychological thriller that blurs the lines between reality and fantasy. I was completely immersed in the story as I followed Josh on his quest for the truth. Despite the chills and tears, reading this book did me a world of good. The author spoke to my soul, and this novel touched me deeply. The story is well developed, and the ending is just perfect, giving the novel a whole new dimension that blew me away! I won't say any more. If you're intrigued, you know what to do. You won't be disappointed!"

"What a wonderful surprise! A thrilling dystopia that feels so realistic! Revelations are revealed at just the right moments, right up until the end! But is it really the end? There are lots of characters, but we're never lost. We no longer know who is good or bad, who is working for the greater good or not! In any case, I recommend this book 100%!"

"An original and fascinating reading experience, thanks mainly to the incredible layout, but also to the suspense that builds to a crescendo! After a few chapters, it becomes difficult to put the book down. As soon as I finished volume 1, I jumped right into volume 2. I admire the work that has been done. Bravo, artists!"

"Here is a thrilling, surprising, and highly original science fiction novel! Johanna Zaïre manages to frighten us while giving us hope thanks to Soulia. A good end-of-the-world story that is a quick read and leaves us eager to read the sequel."

"I identified with this autobiography a lot. Johanna shows us her strength of character, that the will to live is often the strongest force. That doing what you love is very important. But also how difficult it is to be yourself when you don't fit in with what society expects, when you don't know how to "pretend," and how much the people you meet can tip the balance one way or the other. Thank you for this story, these confidences."

"Thrills guaranteed. Phantasmagoria is a book apart. I was certainly not disappointed. Far from it! Anyone who knows me a little knows that short story collections aren't really my thing. Rare are those that have found favor in my eyes. But this one is different. I loved the atmosphere, which was both chilling and horrifying. I devoured this book so eagerly that it didn't last long. I was delighted to be reunited with the five friends I had discovered in Sanatorium, one of my favorites from 2016. Once again, Johanna Zaïre transported me into her world in just a few lines, and reading this book was a real pleasure."

"I loved this first volume! The story is gripping, dark in all the right ways, and the illustrations are magnificent. The format is also brilliant. The text is often interrupted by illustrated passages. This blend of novel and comic book gives this first volume all its charm. I can't wait for the next installment!!"

"Why does each of your novels hit me so hard? I couldn't put my computer down... I read your story in two days... It sucked me in... I was scared, I shivered, and I cried!!!! In short... I'm hooked."

Action is omnipresent in this novel, particularly thanks to a rather breathless opening scene in the police station. Johanna has a very cinematic style that plunges us straight into the action. We laugh, we tremble, we are sometimes left breathless, but it is such a treat that we want more. Reading this novel is a breath of fresh air. We can't help but love this book."

"This novel is a message about self-acceptance, but not only that. By telling her story, Johanna Zaïre shows that everyone has their place and that it is possible to overcome adversity. Despite the challenges she faced, the author gave her all to reclaim her life, particularly through this book, which she offers us without artifice to help us better understand, support, and accept ourselves as a whole, regardless of who we are."

" A beautiful novel, full of unexpected twists and turns. Colorful characters who take us along on their painful journey into the heart of arms and drug trafficking. We accompany Dylan, a stubborn young woman who turns out to be much more than that, and Jeeves, a rather gloomy young man who proves to be a man of his word. I won't say any more, except that I loved it!"

"I loved this book set in a sanatorium... I was swept away by this story from the very first pages. Everything I believed to be true was constantly being called into question. The ghostly apparitions are well balanced and well written! Events unfold, intertwine, and confuse us... I loved trying to guess what would happen when I turned the page. A truly great discovery!"

"I was blown away! I devoured it in one evening, I couldn't put it down. And the ending is just incredible. It made me cry. Thank you for this unforgettable moment!"

"A poignant autobiography: the story of a descent into hell that could have ended badly, of a difficult recovery, with relapses, but also with strength and determination. An unusual life and artistic journey, ultimately leading to the logical choice (and yet so difficult in our society) to make a living from one's passion. A touching book, both a memoir and a heartfelt novel."

"I really enjoyed this novel, which I devoured in one evening! The suspense is palpable and the twists and turns keep the reader on the edge of their seat!"

"Johanna and Thibault have given us a true graphic novel. A hybrid novel that combines Johanna's narrative with Thibault's magnificent drawings and illustrations. You are completely transported into the book. You'll want more. And I can't wait to get my hands on the second book. I highly recommend this book because it's a gem."

"I quickly became immersed in the story. I experienced the cataclysmic events as if they were real. The narrative is very vivid. The writing is fluid and the author's style superb. Johanna Zaïre depicts a world that is disappearing, dark and breathtaking."

"This novel is not just a story of disasters and apocalypse. It's very pleasing to see that there is originality, a real idea, and research on the part of the author. I was surprised by the turn of events."
