From CF Media comes the manga version of Infinitale Chronicles. The story is done by Chris Fisk and the artwork is done by Antonio Brandao, adapting the first two chapters of the fantasy saga.
In the world of Esperia, the ancient deities hold the Elves, Fauns, and Fomoire in a constant state of conflict. This allows them to enslave the tribes. That is until the Elf Queen Aislinn becomes pregnant with a natural child. During the pregnancy and after the birth of her son, she has strange visions of a city that can reveal the truth of the deities. Her husband Coalan goes in her place with his trusted guard Darwen. What they find in this lost city will bring about something greater and reveal a darker secret than they could have imagined.
Like I said in the review of the comic book version, the artwork was very impressive with sleek character designs and backgrounds. They really popped up and made the story come alive. This is one where I do hope we get a sequel to this soon.
Reading this story in the manga version, I was still pulled into the story. You truly feel how the tensions build as the elves are slowly realizing that more is going on than they first suspect.
I won a copy of this in a contest and I am so glad I did. Fisk is very imaginative and seeing it in manga form shows how versatile the story is. I had such a good time reading it and I cannot wait to see what they will do next with this franchise.
