Jul 11, 2025The translation for Yen Press is in the very capable hands of Amanda Haley with lettering by Aila Nagamine that ably conveys when people are speaking different languages, as well as adding explanatory notes in the text between panels in a small but readable font such as Ordo = Mongolian court (there are no translation notes). At the end theres a helpful map, a simplified family tree for Genghis Khan, a guide to the members of Mistress Fatimas household and a couple of paragraphs about slavery in the Islamic world at the time. A two-page preview/trailer for Volume 2 brings the book to an end; the second volume (of five so far) is due out in November. Read Full Review
