The myth of the vampire revisited by Jun Mochizuki, queen of gothic fantasy and author of Pandora Hearts !
End of the 19th century. Paris is in turmoil following repeated vampire attacks. However, the golden rule of their community is not to attack humans! A mysterious evil seems to be gnawing at these immortal creatures...
It is during this troubled period that Noé arrives in the capital. He follows the trail of the grimoire of Vanitas, a legendary artifact feared by all vampires. It is said that it allows its holder to interfere with what is most sacred to them: the true name, the very symbol of their life. Changing it can drive them crazy, or even destroy them…
On board the enormous floating ship he boarded, Noé meets Amélia. While he helps her recover from an illness, everything comes to a head: she loses her mind and reveals her vampire nature in front of the passengers! It is then that a mysterious assailant enters the scene, introducing himself as… Vanitas! In front of a speechless Noah, he draws the famous grimoire and calms the young woman's bout of madness. So the artifact wouldn't just be a deadly weapon? Vanitas, heir to the name and power of the book's creator, has a mission: to save vampires from the curse that weighs on them!
After Pandora Hearts , Jun Mochizuki creates a new thrilling universe, between steampunk and fantasy! The young author's talent for portraying mysterious, ambivalent characters with complex psychology cannot be denied. With a line as careful and elegant as ever, she takes us through a Paris populated by legendary creatures, in an investigation at the borders of the world of humans and vampires!
