DescriptionIn Berserk Volume 24, Guts, known as the Black Swordsman, is more determined than ever to find a haven for Casca, his beloved, who is incessantly pursued by demonic forces attracted to her Brand of Sacrifice. With a resolve hardened by relentless battles and trials, Guts leads his eclectic group of companions on a perilous journey towards Elfhelm, the enigmatic homeland of his ethereal companion, Puck.
As they draw closer to their destination, Guts enlists the aid of new allies residing within a mysterious and enchantingly guarded forest. This woodland realm promises respite and the chance for healing within its magical heart. However, in typical Berserk fashion, the promise of sanctuary is under constant siege by lurking perils. The apparent tranquillity of this paradise conceals threats, as an onslaught of brutal and bloodthirsty trolls casts ominous shadows across this utopian landscape.
Crafted by the visionary Kentaro Miura, Berserk continues to mesmerise readers with its unwavering mix of intense action, chilling horror, and bold, dark humour that defies conventions and thrills its loyal audience. Miura's epic narrative, combined with his unparalleled artistry, catapults readers into a gritty yet magical medieval world where each victory is but a momentary reprieve from the overarching malevolence.
Berserk Volume 24 stands as a testament to Miura's masterful storytelling and his ability to weave an intricate tapestry of emotions, drawing readers deeper into the struggle of its protagonists. As Guts and his comrades face both internal and external demons, this volume promises not only heart-pounding action but also nuanced character development that fans of the series have come to cherish.

About the Author
While attending college at Nihon University, in 1988, Kentaro Miura debuted a 48-page manga known as Berserk Prototype, an introduction to the current Berserk fantasy world. It went on to win Miura a prize from the Comi Manga School. In 1989, after receiving a doctorate degree, Kentarou started a project titled King of Wolves based on a script by Buronson, writer of Hokuto no Ken (Fist Of The North Star). In 1990, the first volume Berserk was released with a relatively limited success. Miura again collaborated with Buronson on manga entitled Japan. Miura's fame grew after Berserk began "The Golden Age" story arc and the huge success of this masterpiece made of him one of the most prominent contemporary manga artists. In 1997, Miura supervised the production of 25 anime episodes of Berserk that aired in the same year on NTV. The series has also spawned a whole host of merchandise, both official and fan made, ranging from statues and action figures, to key rings, video games, and a trading card game. In 2002, Kentaro Miura received the second place in the Tezuka Osamu (Astro Boy) Cultural Prize of Excellence for Berserk. The author lives in Tokyo, Japan.
