"The best animation is true to life but not realistic: true to life in that it's believable and takes from life those elements that you need to tell a story, but only those elements." -Oscar-winning Pixar director Jan Pinkava

Where’s the line between the unreal and the real? God’s Acre is a twelve-part series of artfully designed macabre modern fairytales. These stories explore the blurry line between reality and fantasy, appealing to adults and children ages 10 and up. God’s Acre cemetery is the setting for the unsettling journey of the Kruk children as they explore their past.

In this first book, imaginative and adventuresome Isabel leads her older brother Norman to God’s Acre cemetery. As Norman watches over Isabel, the gravedigger spins the yarn of the late Norman Criddle. In life, Criddle was a lonely man with an intense and ultimately chilling love for ravens.
It is neither a graphic novel nor an art-book. The strange and fragmented world is reminiscent of a reality that might be seen through the eyes of a child. The intertwining storylines are illustrated by separate artists, evoking a shift in perspective, and watching the stories twist and turn around each other adds an intrigue as the role of God’s Acre cemetery in the Kruk’s history comes to light. This is a world where what is real and unreal is a matter left decided by the power of imagination.
