A boy with horns, marked for death. A girl who sleeps in a cage of iron. The Castle of the Mist calls for its sacrifice: a horned child, born once a generation. When, on a single night in his thirteenth year, Ico's horns grow long and curved, he knows his time has come.

  • Great!

    For a book that was released more than a decade ago, the seller took remarkable care of their copy. There is some stains on the upper and bottom edges, but overall, it looks as good as new! I'm very happy to own this novel adaption of one of my favorite video games ever!
