A quest for a better harvest

In this manga, a prince sets out from a poor land in search of the source of a golden grain, hoping to ease the hardship faced by his people. His journey west brings him to the Land of the God-Folk, while an encounter with Thea sends their paths in different directions. The quest links a community’s struggle for food with a larger journey into unfamiliar territory, giving the story both a practical purpose and a sense of discovery. The supplied description establishes the central journey and its unresolved questions, without revealing how Shuna’s search or his connection with Thea concludes.

Book overview

A New York Times Bestseller
An Eisner Award Winner

From legendary animator Hayao Miyazaki comes a new manga classic, never before published in English!

Shuna, the prince of a poor land, watches in despair as his people work themselves to death harvesting the little grain that grows there. And so, when a traveler presents him with a sample of seeds from a mysterious western land, he sets out to find the source of the golden grain, dreaming of a better life for his subjects.

It is not long before he meets a proud girl named Thea. After freeing her from captivity, he is pursued by her enemies, and while Thea escapes north, Shuna continues toward the west, finally reaching the Land of the God-Folk.

Will Shuna ever see Thea again? And will he make it back home from his quest for the golden grain?
