art by Junji Ito A fiendish power - the power of the spiral - swirls about the sleepy, fogbound town of Kur(zu-cho. It haunts the streets, kills some of its inhabitants, drives others mad... and changes others in even more terrible ways. Now Kirie Goshima and her boyfriend, Shuichi Saito (who lost both his parents to the spiral), must find a way to stop the malign spiral and its ghastly followers before their world is engulfed! Obsessed with Kirie, an awkward teenager gives her a jack-in-the-box before dying in a horrible accident. Slimy with sweat, and growing a shell on his back, a boy turns into a giant snail. The lighthouse of Kur(zu-cho beams a deadly glow over the sleeping houses. Mosquitoes spin in drowsy spiral, sucking the blood of pregnant women, and turning a hospital into a nightmare. And in the South China Sea, a hurricane is forming, moving toward Kur(zu-cho to snare it in the eye of the storm. MATURE READERS. SC, 200pg, b&w |
