Empire of the Damned [Illustrated Special Edition] by Jay Kristoff Hardcover

A UK first edition, first printing of Empire of the Damned by Jay Kristoff, published by Harper Voyager. Signed by the author on the title page. A fine copy in the original red cloth boards stamped in elaborate gilt, the binding firm and square, pages clean and bright, and no inscriptions beyond the author’s signature.

Issued without dust jacket as published, the decorative gilt design to the boards and spine remains sharp and vibrant, presenting as an exceptional example of this striking edition.

Empire of the Damned is the second volume in the Empire of the Vampire series, continuing Kristoff’s dark, gothic epic of faith, vengeance, and monstrous myth. Richly illustrated and expansive in scope, the novel has become a standout in contemporary grimdark fantasy.
