(Graphic Novel)

"Based on Kafna of the wind, written by Sophie Schwimm ; translated by Hiroto Hama."

"First published in Japan in 2019 by Kodansha Ltd., Tokyo as Toshokan no daimajutsushi, volume 3."--Colophon.

Reads from right to left in the traditional Japanese manga format.

A story about a poor boy swept away by a kind library mage and the (literal) magic of reading, Magus of the Library is a beautifully-drawn, spirited fantasy adventure, like a Fullmetal Alchemist for all ages! Theo has completed the first part of the grueling exam to become a kafna, but he's not in the clear yet--there are two more trials he must face. Even if he makes it through the second test, an intense face-to-face oral examination, the last challenge is a practical demonstration of his abilities as a librarian. Theo has been studying his whole life for this moment, but there's one kind of test that no amount of studying could have prepared him for: a group project.

Rated T, ages 13+.

Translated from the Japanese.
