Books of Magick, Book 1: Life during Wartime

This horrific, disturbing graphic novel is a new direction for the acclaimed Books of Magic, conceived by the writing genius behind Sandman, Neil Gaiman. Like a Hell-born Harry Potter, mage-in-the-making Timothy Hunter finds himself as the nexus for overlapping alternate universes, where a forthcoming war has spilled out over the Earth and its shade reality, Faerie. This mystic apocalypse will span the cosmos and wrench Tim into a reality that brings with it all the psychological horrors and blood-red savagery of a universe gone mad! Like Death and the Sandman himself, Tim Hunter is another of Neil Gaiman's unforgettable creations, but this time he's taken it and twisted - really hard!
