Edit Synopsis s2f63

Volume 1
Tony is a rough-and-tumble jack-of-all-trades with a haunted past. His encounter with Gilver, a mysterious swordsman swathed in bandages, changes his life dramatically for the worse. Tony is thrust into the dark underworld of an unsolvable case, separated from his partner and his loved ones, and pushed over the edge of desperation. Who's forcing him into a corner? What do they hope to achieve?

Volume 2
Dante the giant sword, two-gun toting devil hunter has earned the nickname "Devil May Cry" after mercilessly killing any and every undead creature in his path. Now, he is on a mission for an evil idol known as The Beast Head. But little does Dante know that this mission brings him closer to his eternal enemy.

I usually don't see many people in the DMC fandom who have read this novel or know of its existence but don't know what they are missing. Yeah the novel stopped being canonical since DMC 3 was released but 50% of the facts are taken as canon due to mentions in the other games or even in the anime. If you want to know a little more about Dante and his past in redgrave I definitely recommend it, we know some different facets of him and how he got his famous ebony and ivory weapons so please read it is another very interesting story about ...
