Purple Frog Recommends - A Redtail's Dream

It always amazes me to find such beautiful, original and well written online graphic novels, many of which can be read completely free of charge.
One such marvelous webcomic is A Redtail's Dream, written and illustrated by Finnish/Swedish artist Minna Sundberg.

 
The story takes place in a dream world, and is infused with surrealism and Finnish mythology. We follow characters Hannu Viitanen and his faithful dog Ville in a captivating journey to escape the realm of dreams, while rescuing their fellow villagers from the machinations of a mischievous fox. 


Minna is having a crowd-funding campaign to have the comic published in printed format. It is already (not surprisingly) fully funded and has reached many of the stretch goals, but you still have about a week to grab a copy of the book, along with many other related goodies. This will probably be the only print run for the story, but the comic will stay available online. It is a great chance to support the artist and show appreciation for all the effort put into it (and, of course, then you will have the beautiful book if you choose to buy it). Head on over to the campaign page to see all the details.

Thank you Minna for sharing your art with the world so generously, and best of luck with your campaign!
