Gifts Of The Night

Never before collected into a single volume, Gifts of the Night is a timeless fable of family, power, sex, and betrayal by two masters of comics storytelling.

When a simpleton prince has a vision that his father, the King, turns into military strategy, he is hailed as a seer. But no one realizes that his visions are merely poetic retellings of history lessons learned from his timid tutor, who becomes a reckless manipulator of the boy's visions.

Magdin soon becomes a helpless pawn in a game of savage political intrigue. When his prophecies become more and more ominous, no one is safe as desperation and murder thunders throughout the kingdom.

This edition features a new introduction by acclaimed writer Paul Chadwick and an extensive process art section by painter John Bolton.

Niciodata adunat intr-un singur volum, Gifts of the Night este o fabula atemporala a familiei, a puterii, a sexului si a tradarii de catre doi maestri de benzi desenate. Cand un print simplist are o viziune pe care tatal sau, regele, il transforma in strategie militara , este salutat ca vazator. Dar nimeni nu isi da seama ca viziunile sale sunt doar relatari poetice ale lectiilor de istorie invatate de la timidul sau tutor, care devine un manipulator nesabuit al viziunilor baiatului. Magdin devine in curand un pion neajutorat intr-un joc de intriga politica salbatica.
