Ravine (by Stjepan Sejic) [Image/Top Cow]

[X-SOLDIER]

There're two volumes out right now on digital or paperback for your reading preference. They're about 100+ pages a piece, and yes -- EVERYTHING in the books looks that good. It's not just cover art. (You can check Stjepan Sejic's Deviantart Ravine Gallery to see previews of a lot of what's in the books - but there are obviously some spoilers lurking there). It's probably my favourite bit of high fantasy that I've read in a long time, and I'm just aching for Part 3 to come out.

I meant it when I said that it wasn't just the cover art. And believe me when I say that the story matches the art in sheer excellence in every single way.

Also, he's been working on the story for a LONG time. This is what his older drafts of the story looked like when he initially started coming up with it almost FIFTEEN YEARS ago: http://nebezial.deviantart.com/art/ooold-ravine-pages-184062471

Last (but not least), the first two volumes are each $15 if you want the paperbacks (as I previously mentioned, they're each just over 100 pages): http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?k=ravine
