Legend of Exorcism: Tianbao Fuyao Lu (Novel) Vol. 01 Special Edition

Legend of Exorcism: Tianbao Fuyao Lu (Novel) Vol. 01 Special Edition

The Limited Edition (one printing only) debut! The danmei/Boys’ Love novel series originally released in Chinese—and which inspired the animated series/donghua—is available in English for the first time!

In this thrilling high fantasy adventure set in ancient China, a naive young man must join hands with an unlucky general to protect the mortal world from an evil spirit king. (Takes place in the same universe as Dinghai Fusheng Records.)

Kong Hongjun has lived his whole life in the mystical Taihang Mountains, a haven for yao, spirits with powerful magical abilities. A half-yao himself, he knows little of the human world until the day the ruler of the mountain instructs him to conceal his identity and descend to the mortal realm. There, he is to join the Great Tang Exorcism Department in the ancient capital of Chang’an.

Upon arrival, Hongjun finds himself under the command of Li Jinglong, a down-on-his-luck general with no magic of his own. Along with his fellow exorcists, a group of enigmatic young men with uncanny abilities, Hongjun and Li Jinglong must work together to protect Chang’an from the evil yao that lurk in its darkest corners. But greater machinations are afoot in the capital—and in order to confront them, Hongjun will have to reveal all of himself to Li Jinglong.

This limited Special Edition contains the Standard Edition, but with bonus merchandise shrinkwrapped to the book: a double-sided bookmark, a lined notebook, a set of 5 trading cards, and a sticker sheet. Don’t miss the new art from guest artists included in this special merch!

Fei Tian Ye Xiang (非天夜翔), also known by other names, is a prolific author best known for Chinese-language danmei/Boys’ Love novels including Legend of Exorcism, Dinghai Fusheng Records, and Riverbay Road Men’s Dormitory, many of which have multimedia adaptations.

Title Notes:

Volume 1 will be released in two editions, all with the same book pages and cover illustration: the Standard/Regular Edition and a limited Special Edition at a higher retail price that is the Standard Edition with extra merchandise (with exclusive new artwork) shrinkwrapped to the book: a double-sided bookmark, a lined notebook, a set of 5 trading cards, and a sticker sheet.

This novel series inspired an animated series (which was streaming in English on Netflix until June 2024 and is still available on YouTube through Bilibili), a manhua/comic, and an audio drama.

Seven Seas will also be releasing the novel and manhua/comic adaptation of Dinghai Fusheng Records, by the same author and set in the same universe as Legend of Exorcism.

This release will include 8 to 12 black and white illustrations, 4 color pages, and character and term glossaries, including new art never released in other international language editions.
