Berserk Deluxe Volume 13
Berserk Deluxe Volume 13, from the masterful mind of Kentaro Miura, continues the gripping tale of Guts, the Black Swordsman, as he and his companions venture ever deeper into the treacherous world of dark fantasy. In these chapters, which collect volumes 37 through 39 in a magnificent oversized format, readers are drawn into an intense journey towards the mystical island of Skellig. Here, Guts harbours the hope that the island's legendary Elven magic can restore the shattered psyche of Casca, one of his dearest friends and comrades.
Upon reaching the enigmatic shores of Skellig, Guts and his allies must navigate through its formidable magical defences—terrors that guard the way to Elfhelm, the realm of the Flower Storm Monarch. The stakes are incredibly high: success promises a glimmer of restoration for Casca, potentially unshackling her mind from the chains of past horrors. However, the looming shadow of failure threatens the group with the despair of a journey in vain, as each encounter tests their resolve and strength.
This deluxe edition is presented in its original oversized serialisation format, providing a visually stunning experience that brings Miura’s art to life. The translation has been meticulously updated to resonate more deeply with contemporary readers, ensuring clarity and impact. Additionally, three exquisite fold-out colour posters are included, offering a collector's delight and a chance to adorn your space with breathtaking art from the series.
For fans of adult fantasy and horror, Berserk Deluxe Volume 13 is an essential continuation of the epic saga, ploughing forward with its unparalleled narrative depth and haunting landscapes. The series is often likened to Game of Thrones in its complexity and mature themes; this volume is no exception, weaving intricate plots and character arcs into a tapestry of dark adventure.

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.
