A mysterious set of swords have fallen from the sky, and a group of unlikely heroes from far and near must band together to save their world in The Swords of Glass, a Studio Ghibli-influenced story for adults.

In a world threatened by the imminent death of its sun, young Yama lives a relatively happy and peaceful life as the daughter of the chief of the village. But everything changes the day a sword of glass falls from the sky, just as the prophecy had announced. Anyone who touches the sword is instantly turned to glass and dies. Orland, the local lord of war, comes to take possession of the unique weapon but fails to retrieve it. In the process, Yama's father is killed and her mother taken away. Yama, however, escapes and survives with only one thought: when she grows up, she will return to get the sword of glass and avenge her parents.

The Swords of Glass Volume 1 contains Books 1 and 2 of the acclaimed saga from visionary, award-winning creators Sylviane Corgiat and Laura Zuccheri.

Industry Reviews

"Laura Zuccheri's art is utterly breathtaking and fundamental in completely immersing and investing the reader into this world. Lingering over the realism and detail of her paintings of this fascinating, fantastical place is a singular pleasure." -- Zainab Akhtar * The AV Club *
"To put it simply: The Swords of Glass is wonder incarnate. Sylviane Corgiat and Laura Zuccheri have crafted a work that blend the unbridled imagination and charm of Miyazaki with Jodorowsky and Final Fantasy in a package that is thoroughly humanistic and meticulously detailed. You will get lost in these pages and you will never want to find your way out." * All Comic *
