Dogs: Prelude: Prelude (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781421527024)

An action-packed, stylish shoot-'em-up.

Boasting furious action, switchback plotting, magnetic characters and dazzling art, Dogs tells the story of four individuals struggling to survive a dystopian urban future by gun and sword and courage and luck.

MIHAI, the "Weepy Old Killer" A former hitman now trying to live a quiet life but haunted by the deaths of his victims and his lover.

BADOU, the "Gun Smoker" A chain-smoking "information broker" and hired gun whose reckless fa軋de hides a serious intent.

NAOTO, the "Blade Maiden" A preternaturally skilled swordswoman with a single desire: revenge against the assassin who cut down her family.

HEINE, the "Stray Dog" A cipher with a metal collar bolted to his neck, a disturbing talent for mayhem, and a childhood sacrificed to the thing known as "Kerberos."

Driven by their ghosts--both dead and alive--and their desire for truth, all are struggling to solve the secrets of the past while surviving the dangerous present--by gun and sword and courage and luck.
