MARKETING DESCRIPTION: BEFORE THE HOBBIT, THE LORD OF THE RINGS, AND GAME OF THRONES THERE WAS THE EPIC FANTASY THAT INSPIRED IT ALL! A stunning comic adaptation of the epic The Kalevala, which inspired J.R.R. Tolkien to write The Lord of the Rings. It's the foundational epic of the fantasy genre. The story tells of the adventures and fates of wizard V?in?m?inen, warrior Lemmink?inen, blacksmith Ilmarinen and other larger-than-life characters seeking love, riches, and magic in the faraway lands of the ancient North. The world of Kalevala is lyrical, harsh, and perfectly unique. Adapted and depicted as never before by the visceral, stand-out art of Sami Makkonen, this graphic novel reflects a fresh look at this epic tale!
