post-apocalyptic
world where
problems are solved with bullets, love is bought, and his only
companion is a cybernetic killing-machine called Cherubim!
The first
volume in this new manga series from Titan Books, Eden: It’s
An Endless World vol. 1 [Titan Books, 27 April 2007,
£6.99] finds the planet devastated by the pandemic Closure
virus, leaving what remains of a crumbling society in the hands
of a sinister paramilitary group known as the Propater. When
young Elijah Ballard is captured by a group of mercenaries while
searching for his long-lost mother, he realises his adventures
have only just begun...
Continuing
his journey in Eden: It’s An Endless World vol. 2 [Titan
Books, 27 April 2007, £6.99], Elijah’s quest to find his
mother leads to a violent confrontation, and as tensions between
the freedom fighters begin to reach breaking point, those who
seek them are preparing to mount an all-out assault on their
hiding place in Cuzco City...
Philosophical, heartbreaking, action-packed and beautifully
illustrated, the highly-acclaimed Eden truly is paradise
on earth. Published by Titan in Japanese right-to-left reading
format, it weaves a powerful, bittersweet tale for mature
readers.
As well
as creating the highly successful Eden, which featured in
Japanese manga anthology Afternoon, Hiroki Endo
