Description

Marvel at the breathtaking visuals of this phenomenal B&W oversized hardcover edition of Titan Comics' sell-out series, Dark Souls, Vol.1: The Breath of Andolus! Join Fira - a battle-hardened warrior - as she embarks upon a perilous quest to save her ailing kingdom, fighting countless hoards of demonic foes along the way. The land of Ishra has succumbed to the Undead curse. The village of Harrowmark is at the epicenter of this affliction, and all within her boundaries are affected. The Age of Fire is waning, and soon a new Age of Darkness will be ushered in... There are legends, however, of an ancient dragon that once inhabited this realm, long before the time of man. The wyrm-king, Andolus, was a noble, graceful soul, who presided over Ishra and all her many inhabitants. Slaughtered by a jealous lord, it is said the dragon's bones possess an awesome power, which may bring life back to the dying kingdoms once again. While the truth of the tale is uncertain, Fira - a battle-hardened former knight, who has herself become afflicted - believes she has nothing to lose. Placing her faith in the prophesies of the village scryer, the two set out on a perilous quest to restore their kingdom to its former glory. But in a world where certain death lurks around every corner, can these brave heroes prevail against the horrors ahead of them?
