| Summary |
Knights of Sidonia has been complied into a Master Edition featuring larger print, colored inserts and omibused volumes. Each Master's Edition volume compiles 2.5 volumes of the original Knights of Sidonia volumes. A lone seed ship, the Sidonia, plies the void, ten centuries since the obliteration of the solar system. The massive, nearly indestructible, yet barely sentient alien life forms that destroyed humanity's home world continue to pose an existential threat. Nagate Tanikaze has only known life in the vessel's bowels deep below the sparkling strata where humans have achieved photosynthesis and new genders. Not long after he emerges from the Underground, however, the youth is bequeathed a treasured legacy by the spaceship's cool-headed captain. |
