The fate of the world as at stake in this lavishly illustrated masterwork from manga supergroup CLAMP! Reads R to L (Japanese Style). X, the epic series from CLAMP, is now available in this deluxe collector's edition. The pages have been recomposed in the original right-to-left reading order and restored to the highest quality. Each volume contains three of the original graphic novels, along with gorgeous, full-color illustrations never before published outside Japan! Kamui Shiro is a young man followed by mystery. Taken from Tokyo by his mother when only a child, Kamui left behind his dearest friends--the gentle Kotori and her brother Fuma--in the aftermath of a terrible incident that claimed their mother's life. Returning to Tokyo after his mother's death, Kamui is a changed young man--moody and distant to his old friends, yet determined to protect them from the dark forces that swirl around him. For he is the nexus of a great cataclysm to come, and inheritor to a strange destiny that could decide the fate of the entire world.

I've read other of Clamp's work and now know that there's going to be a slow build up, lots of characters thrown at me from the start and beautiful art, which this one has but there's also within it's pages the looks of an intricate story, one steeped in blood and death so I am definitely intrigued to see how the rest plays out.
