Add a CommentDawn of the Arcana is a beautifully-drawn, well thought-out manga series. Set in a fantasy world where kingdoms are at war, Princess Nakaba is forced to marry Prince Caesar of the opposing kingdom. Having been shunned all her life for her commoner hair, Nakaba has to learn to use her voice (and her mysterious powers), while Caesar needs to learn to hear her in order for their two countries to heal - despite grave animosity between the two royal families.
Dawn of the Arcana is a great first manga to start out with.
I'm not normally a fan of manga, but I would like to start to get more into the manga world. Dawn of the Arcana is a great and fast paced read. I really enjoyed the fantasy aspects of the story, and the art was very eye pleasing.
I wish the library had more of the series' volumes!
I liked it
Great series but I renewed the book and still got fined!!!
A very interesting plot with alot of realism
re-read over and over! Too good :)
