Description
The intrigue and royal conspiracy in the Bard's Richard III is given a dark manga twist that will appeal to aficionados of both comics and the classics.
Richard, the ambitious third son of the House of York, believes he is cursed, damned from birth to eternal darkness. But is it truly fate that sets him on the path to personal destruction? Or his own tormented longings? Based on an early draft of Shakespeare's Richard III, Aya Kanno's dark fantasy finds the man who could be king standing between worlds, between classes, between good and evil.
England's new king, now a slave to the witch Jane, gives himself over entirely to debauchery. Richard, unable to overlook George's constant errors, schemes to arrest his brother, just as a killer who resembles Richard himself is conspiring behind closed doors. Meanwhile, Richard's mysterious body becomes an object of interest...
