Black Butler #1

This debut volume of Yana Toboso's dark fantasy series introduces Ciel Phantomhive, the young Earl of the Phantomhive estate, and his impeccably dressed butler, Sebastian Michaelis. Bound by a supernatural contract, Sebastian serves Ciel with inhuman skill while concealing his true nature as a demon, setting the stage for a gothic tale of revenge and intrigue in Victorian England. The collection opens the arc of the Phantomhive household's dealings with the underworld of London and the mysterious deaths plaguing the city's criminal underground.
