About this ebook

Deep within the nightmare realm of Casca's dreams, Schierke and Farnese battle endless horrors to reach the dark secret that has imprisoned Casca's mind for so long.

But the dreamworld dangers are no mere phantasms of the unconscious--they are a lethal reality to the intruders from the material world!

From creator Kentaro Miura comes the latest chapter of Berserk, a sprawling adult fantasy epic of horror, humor, and fierce imagination and the inspiration for the wildly popular anime series.

FOR MATURE READERS.

Ratings and reviews

Been hooked for 20ish years, Guts is no longer on a boat... for like 7 GD YEARS MIURA! Who's recent chapter had a dream sequence that was just lovley, and who's art could beat up Damien Hirch's. humming along at a breakneck 1 chappy a year now. A boone to fans who love makeing memes from the new issues, that normals don't quite understand, and can't relate to. A criminally underappreciated life enrichment experiance.

Can't wait for the next one

too bad this is the last chapter. RIP

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. The author lives in Tokyo, Japan.
