steampunk aesthetic that's brimming with arcane dangers. Within it,
a teenage girl struggles to overcome the trauma of war, a task
that's made all the more difficult by her mysterious psychic link
to an eldritch monster of tremendous power-a connection that will
transform them both, and place them in the crosshairs of both human
and otherworldly powers. Creator/writer Marjorie Liu (who made
history as the first woman to win an Eisner Award for Best Writer)
and creator/artist Sana Takeda present a deluxe, oversized
hardcover edition of their beloved breakout comic in MONSTRESS BOOK
ONE. Collecting the first 18 issues of the New York Times
bestselling series, this massive edition features a striking new
cover, as well as special extras, including never-before-seen
sketches, script pages, and more for over 500 pages of
award-winning content.

The story is compelling and the art-style gorgeous. The physical book is bigger and better quality than I was expecting. This is one series that benefits from the hardcover deluxe treatment - the larger pages show off the art, and the hardcover is a testament to the quality of the story you have on your shelf.
