The sci-fi classic from the creators of xxxHOLiC and Cardcaptor Sakura returns, in a remastered, hardcover edition, featuring the entire CLOVER series. One of CLAMP's most ambitious works-part AKIRA, part Metropolis- CLOVER features nearly 500 pages of manga. Su was born into a bleak future, where the military keeps tight control over the few children born with psychic abilities-known as "clovers." The clovers are forcibly tattooed with a symbol that indicates their potential power, and Su is the only four-leaf clover in the world. Kept locked away in isolation her whole life, Su longs to escape and get a taste of normal life. A voice in her mind guides her to the answer: an agent named Kazuhiko. Neither of them realize it, but Su and Kazuhiko share a bond that spans decades... CLAMP's most daring science-fiction work, CLOVER's art-deco cyberpunk aesthetic is just as fresh and exciting today as it was twenty years ago. Featuring the entire story in a newly-revised translation; remastered art and lettering; a striking cover; and over 20 pages of color art, this is a great collectible for CLAMP fans, and the perfect way to get to know CLOVER for the first time. Review: This manga is special, but I received the item damaged in two occasions - As I said I received the book damaged in two occasions. The first one came with half of the pages damaged. The second one had the book's spine damaged, like it's too weak to hold all the pages. I won't give five stars for all the inconveniences, but this manga is AMAZING. I don't know how to explain it. It's unique, special. I haven't seen this kind of narrative before and the art helps a lot with the storytelling, it's beautiful. I think this is the most beautiful manga I ever read. I really don't know how to review this manga, but I am in love. Review: Manga is fairly good, the book condition was poor - Book came with marks and a dent on the front cover, it was supposed to be a new book but it looked like it had been used as there were finger prints on some of the pages. (Bought this book a while back but it took me while to find the time to read). I enjoyed the story of the book, the layout is a little different though.

Finalmente um edição "definitiva"
Sobre a historia, é cheia de brechas e não explica tudo o que se passa. Possui algumas coisas "estranhas" comuns da clamp. Bem original para mim ( não sou especialista em mangas para atestar profissional essa opinião). Para quem compra essa edição acredito que estejam familiarizados com a historia, vale a pena, eu que li esse manga online finalmente tenho uma edição. Ha um comentário explicando os erros de tradução, quem tiver interesse acho bom dar uma olhada no me do comentário "Beautiful but some translations are wrong". Quanto ao livro, veio sem nem ao menos um plástico envolvendo o livro, apenas na caixa sem proteção, acredito que isso deve ser a razão de alguns terem chegado com avarias, eu dei sorte. A capa pega sujeira facilmente, limpei com álcool em gel as manchas de sujeira que grudaram na capa. As paginas são ótimas, porém as paginas do manga são do tipo que absorvem bem tinta, no casa com o tempo a sujeira da mão vai ficar bem marcada nas folhas, para quem vai colecionar é bom usar luvas ao manusear ou limpar bem as mãos antes de folhear. É um livro bem pesado de relativo difícil manuseio Apenas um pensamento, adoraria que a clamp terminasse esse manga, já que era previsto mais dois volumes para concluir a historia. A historia fica com um bom final apesar de faltas esses dois volumes que talvez nem chegaram a ser escritos.

Came in perfect condition.
Perfect condition. This book is beautiful and the colors are so well done. I was nervous turning the pages at time because I didn't to damage it. As for the series - if you've read it, is all here...including the fact that it NEVER GOT FINISHED.

Una edición preciosa
Es una edición de pasta dura, de gran tamaño y con muchas ilustraciones a color. Si eres fan de la obra (y sabes inglés) es una edición que no deberías dejar pasar, es de excelente calidad con una buena traducción, muy recomendable.
