Geralt comes across a derelict mansion where he is met with the current owner-not quite human, but a beast with the faculties of a man. The beast invites him inside where he shares stories of his family, his life . . . and his curse. If the weight of his misdeeds could condemn him to the body of a beast-a retribution spoken of only in fairy tales, could there be another grain of truth in these tales of fantasy-one that could help him elude his fate and lead him to salvation?

This graphic novel is the second in a series of adaptations from Sapkowski's acclaimed short story collection The Last Wish. In search of a reward, Geralt brings the carcass of a slain creature to a small town where he is told it may be of use to the local sorcerer-but the mage isn't who he is alleged to be. In hiding for his life, he requests Geralt's help in slaying the monster who seeks to murder him-a young woman said to have been born under the Curse of the Black Sun-a prophecy of inborn evil. He declares that she is more a monster than the creature presented before him. Geralt later encounters the woman, who asserts that it is the sorcerer who is the true monster-committing unspeakable crimes at the behest of his superstitious beliefs. With the boundaries blurred between the evil that is done and the evil done in return, Geralt is met with a quandary. The face of evil is ever-changing and his verdict, whether by choice or by force, can only lead to tragedy.

(W/A/CA) Giorgio Carpinteri
A Raw artist returns, and Atlantis exists, in this new and original graphic novel from one of the great Italian comics masters, published in English for the first time. In this graphic novel, Aqualantics maintain a fragile peace with their 'surface brothers'-as long as their world remains a myth. But when an actor who plays the character of the 'indefensible Earthman,' all cynicism and vulgarity, is gradually possessed by his role, a chain reaction jeopardizes the entire kingdom and the uneasy peace between the two species. Giorgio Carpinteri's sheer graphic brilliance - fusing aspects of Futurism, Cubism, Russian Constructivism, and German Expressionism with echoes of Bauhaus and distinct whims of Art Deco - would be enough to carry this brilliant fantasy, but Aqualantic is also a lyrical, allegorical masterpiece exploring the relationship between the conscious and unconscious, the known and the unknown.
