In this majestic final chapter of Hugo Pratt’s saga, the legendary sailor and dreamer, Corto Maltese, reunites with nearly all his key companions from previous adventures and sets off in search of the fabled lost continent – Mu. But as always with Corto, the journey is not only across geography, but through the realms of spirit, symbol, and dream.

An unexpected sequence of events pulls him into a harmonious labyrinth, where he parts ways – and reunites – with his own shadow, racing headlong through time and space in a desperate attempt to save those he loves, those for whom he entered this strange passage in the first place. Every page becomes a journey inward, each moment a reflection of Corto’s hidden dimensions.

In Mu, Pratt masterfully weaves metafiction and metaphysics into a tapestry where the boundaries between reality and imagination dissolve, where character and creator blur, where waking life and dream intermingle. This book is not only Corto’s farthest and most daring expedition, but also Pratt’s poetic tribute to the eternal quest – for meaning, for identity, for freedom.

As Pratt himself used to say, Corto always goes “a little further” – and in Mu, he ventures the farthest of all. To the edge where adventure stops being a story and becomes an experience.
