Mapamundis. Everything that can be told on a map.

There’s so much more in a map than a representation of a territory. In fact they
are a journey with the imagination of places that awaken our interest. The main
concept of this book is trying to explain, with a fun, visual, motivated and easy
way, all those things explained in a map, and how are we able to understand

Francesca Ferreti has created for Mosquito a collection that reunites three
basic concepts: the history through its characters, the coloured and friendly
illustrations and the concept of the journey as an adventure. This brilliant
union, applied to a book in accordion format, leads to MapAdventure, with 8
titles programmed in two years.

Mosquito Books introduces to the world a new concept of editorial: the
story of the B series, a story of police fiction, dressed as a large-format
illustrated book.
In the city of the gangsters nothing is what it seems. When you begin to read
this B series album, it is hard to stop reading, but neither can you stop thinking
about the evidence and the clues (true or false?) that will help you discover
the culprit.
Look closely the movements of Big Tulio and his daughter Lucrecia, but don’t
even think about leaving Valdamar aside.

This book will surprise you because you could never have been able to imagine
that under your feets, when you visit some cities, another world is sheltered
and hidden that has nothing to do with the one that takes place in the sunlight.
For the most diverse and curious reasons, the subsoil of many cities hides
another unknown city, which will leave you speechless.
