Heartpiercer

Atala thought she was saving the world—but in hunting down the great beasts, she wound up dooming it.

Betrayed by her lord, Kurrn, and left for dead, she awakes in a dark world overrun by nightmares, with a single mission on her mind: revenge.

But before she can avenge herself on Kurrn, she must deal with the devastation left in his wake - beginning with a tribe of vicious werewolves menacing one of the last human settlements. As she confronts the bestial Howler and comes to terms with her own past, Atala must unlock a deep and ancient power inside herself if she is to survive, much less triumph.

A thrilling new dark fantasy graphic novel from the minds of Rich Douek and Gavin Smith, with Nicholas Burgdorf, Roshan Kurichiyanil and Justin Birch.
