A Tapestry of Connections

String breaks conventional storytelling, delving into the unseen bonds that knit our world. Our protagonist, Yoon-Sook Namgung, is a 25-year-old Korean-American woman with a unique talent.

And for readers, this promises a visual feast, with Olivares’s illustrations making every page turn a revelation.

This revelation shakes her previously manageable reality, forcing her into an urgent quest for answers. Will she become a victim or a villain in this tangled fate?

Carlos Olivares describes the series as pure, exhilarating entertainment, loaded with captivating characters and thrilling strings: "It grips you and doesn’t let go." Indeed, with energetic storytelling woven with whimsically sinister charm, String promises a tale readers will treasure.
