Never before collected into a single volume, Gifts of the Night is a timeless fable of family, power, sex, and betrayal by two masters of comics storytelling. When a simpleton prince has a vision that his father, the King, turns into military strategy, he is hailed as a seer. But no one realizes that his visions are merely poetic retellings of history lessons learned from his timid tutor, who becomes a reckless manipulator of the boy's visions. Magdin soon becomes a helpless pawn in a game of savage political intrigue. When his prophecies become more and more ominous, no one is safe as desperation and murder thunders throughout the kingdom. This edition features a new introduction by acclaimed writer Paul Chadwick and an extensive process art section by painter John Bolton.
