Barnaby Rudge - Part 1 as you haven't seen it before — in a remarkable illustrated edition.

The year is 1775. In the eerie glow of lantern light, a house called The Warren stands shrouded in mystery. Years ago, a brutal murder was committed within its walls—a crime unsolved, a secret buried. But in England, the past never stays quiet for long.

In the quiet countryside near London, young Barnaby Rudge, an innocent soul with a dark past, roams the land with his ever-faithful raven, Grip. He knows nothing of the sinister forces swirling around him—the whispered conspiracies, the rising unrest, the enemies lurking in the shadows.

Meanwhile, tensions simmer across the city as hatred and fear take hold. The rumblings of rebellion grow louder, and the streets of London tremble under the weight of an impending storm—the Gordon Riots. As mobs gather and torches are raised, fate draws Barnaby into a fire he never meant to ignite.

But revolution is not the only danger. A cunning apprentice plots against his master. A mysterious stranger watches from the darkness. A long-lost truth threatens to surface. And a murderer, long thought to have vanished, may be closer than anyone dares to believe.

A tale of vengeance, deception, and fate, Barnaby Rudge is a haunting journey into the heart of a city unraveling—where the innocent suffer, the wicked rise, and history is written in blood and fire.
