独裁グリムワール [Dokusai Grimoire / Dictatorial Grimoire] #1

A spellbinding opener from 狩野アユミ, this first volume of Dictatorial Grimoire presents a striking cover pairing a white-haired, ethereal figure looming large in the background with a determined young protagonist clutching an ornate, glowing book in the foreground. Swirling around them, silhouetted fairy-tale characters — knights, a horse, and mysterious dark figures — seem to tumble out of the grimoire's pages itself, hinting at a world where storybook power is very real and very dangerous. It's a beautifully composed introduction to what promises to be a richly fantastical series.
