The Curie Society
"Created by Heather Einhorn and Adam Staffaroni."
A covert team of young women—members of the Curie society, an elite organisation dedicated to women in STEM—undertake high-stakes missions to save the world. The Curie Society is a selection of the 2022 Hal Clement Notable Young Adult Books List from the American Library Association.
An action-packed graphic novel for the science lover with suspenseful espionage, nerdy humour, and a group of dauntless, eager trailblazers following in the footsteps of Marie Curie (Shelf Awareness).
The brilliant, diverse members of a covert society dedicated to women in STEM undertake high-stakes missions to save the world. An action-adventure original graphic novel, The Curie Society follows a team of young women recruited by an elite secret society—originally founded by Marie Curie—with the mission of supporting the most brilliant female scientists in the world.
The heroines of the Curie Society use their smarts, gumption, and cutting-edge technology to protect the world from rogue scientists with nefarious plans. Readers can follow recruits Simone, Taj, and Maya as they decipher secret codes, clone extinct animals, develop autonomous robots, and go on high-stakes missions.
"A fun comic starring heroines who find themselves solving one scientific puzzle after the next!" ― Andy Weir, New York Times-bestselling author of The Martian
