Kronieken van Legioen #1

The opening book of Kronieken van Legioen announces itself with striking confidence — Mathieu Lauffray's cover painting presents a towering, battle-worn warrior striding forward through a roiling wall of fire, his broad dark cloak spread wide and armored gauntlets catching the hellish red light. The figure's intense, scarred expression and the smoldering chaos behind him set a tone that is unmistakably epic and a little forbidding. Published by Daedalus in 2012, this Dutch-language volume brings together the talents of Fabien Nury, Mario Alberti, Zhang Xiaoyu, and Tirso for what promises to be a richly layered fantasy chronicle.
