Description

Imagine a Britain stripped of democracy: a world of the not-too-distant future, in which freedom was not lost, but surrendered willingly to a totalitarian regime that rose to power by exploiting the people's worst fears and most damning weaknesses.

This is the setting for the parable of Evey, a young woman who is saved from death by a masked man calling himself only V. Beguiling and dangerous, V ignites the fuse of revolution when he urges his fellow citizens to wake up and shed the blanket of tyranny and oppression in which they have permitted themselves to be cloaked.

While those in power take steps to neutralize the threat, the police pursue the mystery of V, unaware of the terrible truth that awaits them at the end of the trail. It is Evey, however, who, with V as her enigmatic guide, sets out on the most painful path of all: a journey of deception and self-discovery, deconstruction and re-creation, vindication and vengeance.

Chapter 4 of Graphic Novel Version of Chris Howard's Saltwater Witch

An army of the drowned dead, family betrayal, an exiled witch who doesn't know she has power--or that enemies are lurking all around her, spying on her. Follow Kassandra as she discovers who and what she is in this moving underwater fantasy.

Kassandra comes from the sea, but she has no memory of saltwater, seagulls, or an incoming tide. She's never seen an ocean, never heard the thunder of surf. She's an exile, betrayed by her own family, sent as far from the sea as they could arrange--somewhere in the middle of Nebraska.

Everything changes the day she drowns in Red Bear Lake, and discovers she can't really drown. Not in the way everyone else can. Then a two-thousand year old king wakes inside her head and turns out to be a prodigy with mathematics. Kassandra cries for the first time in her life, and learns that her tears are doorways for calling things from the sea. With clues from summoned sea-demons and the voices in her head, Kassandra sets out to find out what the hell is going on...and discovers she's a prisoner, trapped between a murderous grandfather who controls an army of the drowned dead, river witches who spy on her through the plumbing, and Ms. Matrothy, the Girl's Department Director, who's been trying to kill her since she was four.

Customer Reviews
a wonderful and unique world 
   
by Kelly Alvarado
I love fantasy novels but I get tired of the same worlds recreated over and over. Dragons. Outerspace. Now there is an abundance of horny vampires. With this book, I love what the author has created here. It is such a unique vision and one that I am glad I discovered. I have always loved delving into new worlds and the underwater world here is such a refreshing change of pace. Add in the all the action and I really enjoyed this book. Mr. Howard creates characters that we can care about and really, that is what kept me coming back to this series. Give this series a chance, you wont regret it.

Sweet 

     

by Frances B4

Volume 2 was a great little read the same as volume 1. It's a bit pricey but I love it and you only live once. This vol. Ends the Twilight book so you will not pay 9.99+tax for installment 3 of the first book. 

Maybe now they will move onto New Moon though I have my doubts. 

Any how loved it, you should purchase. 

I love it

     

by Emmi R

Loved it 

     

by F.Saint

Wow I loved it and the art work is amazing

This is only half of the first book! 

     

by HLS11

The artwork is beautiful, but like the other reviewer, I thought this was the whole first book (volume1 as in book 1). That's not the case. There are 2volumes to the first book and it's $20 total.

Please make this clearer...the graphic novel is awesome, but I didn't realize it wasn't the whole thing. Label it Part 1 of 2 in the title or something

Finally... 

     

by Coco Lightner

Love Twilight!!!! I bought the graphic novel but never got time to read it. So happy it's an app now!! And NOW I see they already have Vol.2, even more happy!! Now all they need is BUFFYTVS!!!

George R. R. Martin’s monumental fantasy epic continues in this dazzlingly wrought graphic novel adaptation. In the second volume of A Game of Thrones, the irresistible plot thickens and the spellbinding magic of a master storyteller deepens.

For Eddard Stark, Lord of Winterfell and Warden of the North, a new role now beckons: Hand of the King—a position of power second only to his majesty himself. But is a life at court, in luxurious King’s Landing, any life for a hardened man of action like Eddard? Is the king’s invitation an honor he can refuse—or a mandate he cannot ignore, when faced with shocking revelations of treachery on high?

A New York Times bestselling epic. A blockbuster TV series. And now, George R. R. Martin’s breathtaking fantasy masterpiece makes its powerful graphic novel debut—with all the majesty, intrigue, full-blooded adventure, and sweeping, mythic vision that have made it a landmark work of imaginative literature.

Beyond the legendary Wall, the vast battlement that stands between the kingdom of Winterfell and the untamed unknown, something sinister and supernatural is stirring in the frozen wastes. For the lifelong soldiers of the Night’s Watch, sworn to protect the realm, it is time to prepare for the nearly endless season of cold and snow that—along with something unspeakable—is closing in. For Eddard Stark, Lord of Winterfell and patriarch of a fierce and stoic clan, it is time to greet his king . . . and make ready for whatever destiny holds in store. For an arrogant young prince, it is time to reclaim his lost throne, by bartering his innocent sister to be a savage warlord’s bride. And for a princess bound for a strange and brutal realm, it is time to begin a journey of transformation from daughter to wife to queen. All across the Seven Kingdoms, the wheels of tumultuous, life-changing history have begun to turn.
