About the book: 2023 / A unique mixture of science fiction and dark fantasy. This is a world in which the wind reigns, an incredibly strong, piercing wind, where tornadoes are formed, literally reality-altering and possibly sentient. There has been a legend among people for generations that there is a place called the Upper Limit, where the wind originates, where it can be defeated and conquered, where any desires come true. It is there that the Horde, an expedition of 23 people who have been preparing for this campaign all their lives, goes. Explorers and warriors, healers and troubadours, they must walk, because their path is a real ritual, defined over centuries, a tribute to the wind and a real challenge to all its forms. This is the 34th Horde, all the others before it failed, no one reached the goal, because the land around does not forgive mistakes. "The Headwind Horde" is a book-universe in which adventure and poetry of travel, intense action and the search for the meaning of life are intertwined. There are 23 main characters, and each will have their own voice, pages count down from the end, the wind tears letters out of the text, people turn into fountains, and battles with words can be more intense than with swords. A true masterpiece of French literature that is difficult to compare.
