It is a world of heroes, demons, villagers and kings. Oh, and dragons and magic, of course. Kings employ warriors – the Braves – and equip them with the resources they need to fight the demons and protect the villagers.

Or is it just the way it happens to be?Must the Braves defeat the Demon King? Whose version of justice are they fighting for? Is the Demon King irredeemably evil? Was he born this way, or did something happen to him? What if both the Braves and the Demon King became who they are the same we ordinary folk do – by making the choices the world presents to us and accepting the consequences.Yellow Book takes the tropes of a fantasy adventure and reimagines them, employing a humorous approach and a unique artistic style.
