Brave Story - A Retelling of a Classic #13

The thirteenth volume of this manga retelling brings an imposing armored figure front and center — a broad-shouldered warrior in ornate blue-and-silver plate armor who dominates the cover with quiet menace. The elegant Art Nouveau-style border framing the image gives the whole composition a beautifully crafted, storybook quality that suits a series described as "a retelling of a classic." A solid addition to the run for anyone following this Kurokawa-published adventure through its 2009 release.
