Lylian, a comic book writer, was born on April 12, 1975. As a child, he quickly came of age in a world that felt both strange and alien to him. So Lylian embellished it, reinvented it to make it his own, and succeeded in creating a universe that reflected his own sensibilities—distinctive and imbued with a sensitive humanity. In 2004, Les Humanoïdes Associés took an interest in his work and published L’Éveil du Kurran, illustrated by Dune, a one-shot that Lylian co-wrote with Nori. When he was approached to write the adaptation of La Quête d’Ewilan, Lylian literally immersed himself in Pierre Bottero’s sensitive and grandiose universe. To do so, he collaborated with Laurence Baldetti and Loïc Chevallier. The first volume was published by Glénat in 2013 and was a critical and commercial success. The Ewilan adventure was launched. Since then, he has explored this universe through the writing of a dozen volumes. He is also the creator of the series La Famille Fantastique (2016), L'Aventure Fantastique (2018), Méto (2018), and more recently Les Géants, Collège Apocalypse, and L'Île de Minuit. He resides in Quebec.
