This is the back of the book!
This manga collection is translated into English but oriented in right-
to-left reading format at the creator's request, maintaining the
artwork's visual orientation as originally published in Japan, if you've
never read manga in this way before, take a look at the diagram
below to give yourself an idea of how to go about it. Basically, you'll
be starting in the upper right corner and will read each balloon and
panel moving right to left. It may take some getting used to, but
you should get the hang of it very quickly. Have fun!
 DRROR

Hell has broken loose in the kingdom of Midland. On the death of Mid¬
land's king comes invasion, demonic forces seem to be on the rise, under¬
ground pagan cults are running wild, and the church is busily rounding
up and teaching heretics the errors of their ways. While Cuts is busy
testing out his newly repaired sword on the invaders, his former captain
and lover, Casca, her mind wrecked by her unholy tryst with a demon
lord, has fallen in with a rough crowd who don't exactly wish her well.
But she, like Cuts, is now marked with the Brand of Sacrifice, and her
abusers may soon find themselves face-to-face with the unholy abom¬
inations that are inexorably drawn to the Brand!

Created by Kentaro Miura, Berserk is an unstoppable manga avalanche,

an overwhelming epic of unbridled action, unsettling horror, and uncivil
humor that has crushed both friend and foe alike in its relentless path
of destruction. No pain, no gain!

This collection is translated into English but oriented in right-to-left

reading format, as originally published.
