Has anyone read this? If so what did you think of it? Is it a comic or a novel? The artwork looks amazing.

I've read the first book (the only one published in Germany as yet) and found it really good. The author seems to combine Japanese cultural background with fantasy and magic, and the result is quite entertaining.
It it what you would call a graphic novel, meaning it is a story spread over X issues (I have no idea how many, that is; I'd say four to five, judging from the title), the parts should be read in chronological order (each one concludes a chapter, but not the whole story), and another part of the story will be published in some months to years (or not at all, if the publisher decides the series is unprofitable
)
