A tiny clockwork hero on a quest for a heart continues fighting for love, freedom, and hope, gathering allies to face tyrannical forces in a fantastical modern fairytale.
Still on the mend following his first confrontation with the Shrouded Man, Canto must search for allies to stand by his side in their inevitable final battle. And who could ask for better allies than the fearsome Giants? But to earn their allegiance, he’ll need to solve the Labyrinth outside their city and slay the monster that lurks at its heart!
Then, Canto and his friends must cross a bridge guarded by a mysterious bard. The price to pass? A story never heard in all the world!
Series co-creators David M. Booher and Drew Zucker are joined by Sebastián Píriz, Liana Kangas, Jorge Corona, and Shawn Daley for a special installment of Canto’s “striking modern fairy tale” (Newsarama). Bridging the events of Canto: The Hollow Men and Canto: Lionhearted, this swashbuckling, uplifting volume collects Canto and the City of Giants and both issues of Canto: Tales of the Unnamed World in a high-quality hardcover reprint with a brand new cover.
DAVID M. BOOHER grew up in a small Ohio town reading Stephen King, watching The Goonies, eating Lucky Charms in front of He-Man, trading Garbage Pail Kids, playing Nintendo, and going outside. Channeling his love for all the best 1980’s sci-fi and fantasy, he has co-created and written comic series CANTO, POWERLESS, the LGBTQ-led KILLER QUEENS, ALIEN BOUNTY HUNTER, and the middle grade series TALES OF LAKE EERIE. He's also written several features. A lawyer by training, he lives in Los Angeles with his husband and the true masterminds behind their operation--their adopted greyhounds.
