The Island of Golden Zandolie 4. The Blue Blood

For Luca, this new Max was stealing his royalties and the light of fame…

For Jean-Paul, today there will be a meeting not with a new fashion star, but with a living carrier of an alien gene!

At first glance, Max was strikingly similar to Hord, a black mutant driver and brother of another mutant, Ray, the leader of the rebels on the Island of Golden Zandolie. But that was just a magazine cover photo.

What could be Max in life? Most likely, he should to be very tall, about two meters, with a powerful build, scaly dreadlocks and almond-shaped, deep-set eyes, an oblong skull… The eyes of all black mutants were too dark to see properly the vertical pupil.

Only mutant Ray and Golden Zandolie himself had that intimidating reptile look – their eyes were huge, light orange!

There was a knock on the door – finally! Jean-Paul rushed to open it. But instead of the black giant Max, a petit woman of about forty stood on the doorstep. She, too, was black, with a whole shock of small dreadlocks. Smiling broadly, she introduced herself.
