by Sow Kamishiro & Chouniku Prince Laharl awakens from a two-year slumber to find his father dead, his kingdom in chaos, and contenders duking it out for the empty throne. As everyone fights over the kingship, Laharl's only loyal companions are the conniving demon-girl Etna and a ditzy angel trainee named Flonne. Between devious angels, space visitors from Earth, zombie penguins with fanny packs, and other unneeded distractions, Laharl must somehow whip his kingdom back into shape before he can claim it - and there's nothing heaven, hell, or Earth can say about it! Disgaea's witty, anarchic storyline, quirky characters, and ultra-challenging gameplay have made it a favorite of gamers all over the world. It spawned equally popular graphic novels and a 12-episode anime. Now, Enter the Maoh extends the franchise into novels, giving fans a chance to take a closer look at Laharl, Flonne, Etna, and the other characters they've grown to love.

by Chako Abeno Yorito is a high school student who's obsessed with taking pictures of the sky. A chance meeting at a vending machine introduces him to a girl named Matsuri. Matsuri's no ordinary girl, though - she's actually a Yaka, a 350-year-old creature also known the 'Calamity of the Night.' Yaka are supernatural beings with strange powers, beings who never age and who possess almost superhuman strength. Because sunlight is deadly to Yaka, Matsuri has been forced to live a life of solitude, and Yorito is the first friend she's ever had. There's even more to Matsuri, however, than her big secret. She's being followed by Takeshi, a mysterious sword-wielding man who's intent on killing her. But why? And why is Takeshi unharmed by Matsuri's powers? Thrust against his will into an otherworldly battle, will Yorito find the courage to protect Matsuri, their friendship, and himself? (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels
