I'm not sure it counts as the official start of the stuffed-to-the-gills European awards season that ends in January with the prizes at Angouleme, but the next few months should see many announcements like the following, which I hope I'm reading correctly. The third annual Prix La Bande Dessinee Historique goes to Futuropolis' Abdallahi, by Christophe Dabtitch and Jean Denis Pendax. The book features a telling of the story of Rene Caillie. The award will be presented on October 14 at the Salon du livre d'histoire de Blois.
