At fifteen, Dirk Earnest led the world to victory in a savage battle against the evil overload Rárog and his demon horde. Now he’s just a normal second year university student – or he’s trying to be. As the heroic poster boy for fighting evil, Dirk has many adoring fans who follow his every move, but he’s crushingly lonely. Cue his new housemate, Medusa de la Nuage: art student, former demon soldier, war criminal – and Dirk’s nemesis. With Dirk haunted by the ghosts of his past, and Medusa’s desire for human connection battling her demonic nature, the two are about to discover that the best friend you need most might be your (ex) mortal enemy.

Description

From the author of Tiktok sensation The Quiet at the End of the World comes a graphic novel about what happens after the chosen one has saved the world.

The prophecy foretold they would be enemies … it didn’t mention they’d be flatmates.

Four years ago, Dirk Earnest might have defeated the Demon Overlord and his horde. Now he’s just a normal university student. (Or trying to be.) Dirk has many adoring fans who follow his every move in person and online, but he’s also crushingly lonely. Cue his new flatmate, Medusa de la Tempête: art student, former evil minion, war criminal … and Dirk’s nemesis.

Either the two of them will kill each other, or they're going to discover what it really means to live.
