Illustrierte Klassiker Sonderband #11

Part of the Illustrierte Klassiker Sonderband-Reihe — a series devoted to myths, legends, and sagas from around the world — this eleventh special volume brings the great Mesoamerican legend of Quetzalcóatl, the Feathered Serpent, to vivid life. Demetrio Llordén's cover painting pulls you immediately into a scene of dramatic tension: a robed elder figure lurks menacingly in the background while a powerfully built warrior in feathered headdress confronts a woman clutching a child, all set against the stone architecture of an ancient ceremonial setting. It's a striking introduction to one of mythology's most enduring and complex figures, rendered with the lush painted style that has always made this German reprint series a pleasure to hold.
