In the not-too-distant future, our planet becomes a wasteland covered by sand -- the world is like a dry, lifeless stone. Civilization is without hope. Awesome and terrifying creatures scour the sand, searching for food and facing off against the few human survivors.

Gigi is a mysterious girl with the power to see through the sand sea. Her tribe has endured against the great sand whales, but the hunt has turned dry of late and things are looking bleak. In her hardscrabble search for survival, Gigi meets a pirate Sabu on the sand sea. The future of their peoples - and the success of their quest for something to believe in - just may depend on these two ...


One of the many new manga releases from TOKYOPOP, STONe is an intriguing and edge-of-your-seat story with a great sci-fi twist. The story centers around Gigi, a girl with a mysterious and secretive past. Gigi is a seer - she has the mystical power of sight and can foresee things others can't. When she meets Sabu the sand sea pirate, they embark on a strange and extraordinary quest. What do they find? Well... that's something you'll have to discover on a quest of your own.

A perfect pick for that manga fan on your gift list, STONe is a brilliant and exciting read.
