Welcome to a brand-new vision of one of comics' most famous
tragedies from New York Times bestselling author Claudia Gray and
illustrator Eric Zawadzki. In this final book of a graphic novel
trilogy, two teenagers on opposite sides of the same
extinction-level event get drawn deeper into conspiracies that
could doom them-if the planet doesn't self-destruct first. Sera is
a young soldier, bred her entire life to fight for Krypton. She
would die for this planet, but she's never had the time or
inclination to enjoy it. Zahn, however, is a young scientist, full
of hope and ideas for how to improve Krypton for all its citizens.
And yet, the cracks in his world are beginning to appear. In fact,
both Sera and Zahn are unique in ways that will soon drive them
from their destinies and toward each other-toward a cataclysmic
ending to all that they once held true. In this third and final
book, there is no longer any doubt: Sera and Zahn have learned that
Krypton's destruction is assured. General Zod knows this as well,
but he doesn't have the specific information our two young heroes
have: the end is imminent and there is no time to save themselves
or anyone else. Well, not quite anyone. Jor-El and Lara have
finished the space craft that will send their only son, Kal-El, off
to another planet that will offer him the best possibility for a
new life. But Zahn wonders if it wouldn't be possible for Sera and
him to join the infant on board. Just as they have come to openly
express their love for each other, they, and everyone they know are
seemingly doomed. Meanwhile, Zod, still thinking he has time, has
concocted an elaborate plot designed to make it apparent that he is
the only one who can possibly save Krypton. He believes it will
force the removal of the ruling Tribunals and allow Zod to take
control of Krypton himself. Zod's plot will cost the lives of many,
and even though Sera knows everyone is doomed regardless, she can't
stand by and witness this senseless and needless loss of life. In
the end, Zod is betrayed and stands trial for treason. Sera, though
now hated by Zod and his loyalists, stands ready to receive the
same punishment herself-banishment to the Phantom Zone. And while
this otherwise would be considered a horrible sentence, Zahn views
it as a possible means to avoid the ending that faces everyone else
on Krypton. But how will he be able to join his beloved in her fate
and do it before their doomed planet explodes?

Sera is a young soldier, bred her entire life to fight for Krypton.
She would die for this planet, but she s never had the time or
inclination to enjoy it. Zahn, however, is a young scientist, full
of hope and ideas for how to improve Krypton for all its citizens.
And yet, the cracks in his world are beginning to appear. In fact,
both Sera and Zahn are unique in ways that will soon drive them
from their destinies and toward each other toward a cataclysmic
ending to all that they once held true. Having learned of Krypton s
possible fate, Sera and Zahn find it increasingly difficult to
continue with their everyday lives. Sera s enhanced fighting skills
may impress General Zod, but they seem to raise suspicions among
her fellow soldiers. Zahn finds it equally challenging to maintain
his studies and his friendships, as he carries both the knowledge
of an underground rebel group s plans and the experiments conducted
by Jor-El and Lara. Jor-El himself attempts to alert the tribunes
about the looming danger to the planet.

As a newly graduated wizard, Sven Takraf served poor villages in
Marrishland because he wanted a peaceful place to raise his young
family away from magocrats - wizards who used magic to enforce
their reign. When a powerful magocrat sought to annex the villages
under his protection, though, Sven fought back ruthlessly in their
defense.
Fought back but lost.
Devastated by the deaths of the people he had sworn to protect,
Sven devotes himself to breaking the power of the magocrats. His
vision wins many loyal disciples but also makes countless powerful
enemies, and soon he finds himself presiding over the bloodiest
civil war in living memory.
Beyond the nation's borders, an ancient enemy gathers its forces
to invade, and Marrishland is not prepared. If Sven cannot unite
the nation he has divided, all his plans will come to naught but
the extinction of his race.
Swashbuckling Museum heists Hot air balloons Lake monsters
The crown prince of Pithdai has been kidnapped, and the ransom is
a trove of magical paintings - any one of which could destroy the
fragile political and cultural balance of the nascent Flecterran
Union.
Luckily, the king's daughter, Arrina, leads the indefatigable
Senserte - the Eyes of Justice, who are traveling players by day
and ruthless crime-fighters by night.
The Senserte must orchestrate a plan to make the dangerous
exchange to save the prince and bring the kidnappers to justice.
But it's hard to plan for everything. Territorial air elementals,
voracious lake monsters, and a rainforest of living nightmares are
all in a day's work, but this caper has a catch: Arrina's brother
might not want to be rescued.

In the desert land of Turuna, every child possesses powerful magic,
and only an ancient treaty prevents the clans from recruiting them
as soldiers. Now, rumors swirl that an artifact has appeared that
grants childlike magic to an adult, and some clans will stop at
nothing to seize its power.
In the tiny Ahjea clan, Butu has had no time to listen to rumors.
His childhood sweetheart has caught the eye of the most powerful
man in Turuna. Even worse, his magic has suddenly become
unreliable, failing him at the most embarrassing moments. The only
good news he's had all day is he's being allowed to join his clan's
army despite his youth.
When his squad of young recruits is sent on a mission they can't
complete without magic, Butu begins to grow suspicious. It soon
becomes clear that if he doesn't figure out the truth and find the
artifact first, an all-powerful tyrant will rise up and conquer
Turuna.
