Enter the House of the Beast in this dark fantasy debut from Michelle Wong, known for her work on The Legend of Korra graphic novels. The story follows Alma, a young woman born out of wedlock and shunned by society, who seeks revenge against her aristocratic family after her mother falls gravely ill. In her desperation, Alma discovers a clue about her estranged father and writes a plea for help, unaware that she is a member of House Avera, one of the noble families serving the gods. Her father, a vessel of the Dread Beast—an ominous god of death—compels her to make a harrowing choice: sacrifice her left arm in exchange for her mother's medicine. Trapped within the Avera estate after her mother's death, Alma becomes a pawn in her father's schemes, fueled only by her desire for vengeance. She forms a strange connection with her god, who appears to her as a beautiful prince with starlit hair, urging her to bring about change. With his guidance, Alma embarks on a perilous journey to destroy the House that has taken everything from her. This gripping tale weaves together divine rituals, intense combat, and twisted romance, exploring themes of revenge, resilience, and the transformative power of love amidst darkness.
