Slayers Volumes 1-3 Collector's Edition: Slayers

Proven appeal of subject: The anime has been in print in English almost non-stop for 20 years across multiple formats. The novel series has seen a revival in Japan, with three new novels being added in the recent years including a 30th anniversary edition. Genre staying power: A fantasy series steeped in humor and sword-and-sorcery tradition, Slayers combines action with classic character sand goofy gags to keep the reader coming back for more. The serialised storytelling also encourages returning for the next volume!

Artwork: Multiple full-page illustrations (4 color and approx. 10 black-and-white per volume) add extra value and provide crossover appeal with the manga buying audience.
