While setting a trap for the mysterious Abnormal Titan, the Survey Corps are being surrounded by Titans who are preparing to attack.

The Survey Corps has overthrown the Royal Government and swept away the tyranny of the king. The next step: Move to retake Wall Maria, with the helpf of a newly-discovered metallic ore and Eren's miraculous Titan hardening powers. But as humanity pulls together, its enemies also unite beyond the Walls... now that the Beast Titan has joined Reiner and Bertolt, what havoc will they wreak?

The truth revealed through the memories in Grishas journals shakes all of Erens deepest beliefs. There is no rugged but free land beyond the Walls there is a whole other world, equally full of oppression and war. Suddenly, the ambitions that have animated the Survey Corps for generations seem small and na̐ve. What is there left to fight for?

"Captured by Rod Reiss, the rightful king, Krista and Eren finally have their memories back. What exactly happened to Eren, and what was the crime his father committed? Meanwhile, the Survey Corps desperately hunts for Eren, while at the same time seeking to legitimize their military coup. As the situation inside the walls comes to a head, the mysteries of the world of the Titans seem on the cusp of being solved at last!" --

"The Colossal Titan has breached humanity's first line of defense, Wall Maria. Mikasa, the 104th Training Corps' ace and Eren's best friend, may be the only one capable of defeating them, but beneath her calm exterior lurks a dark past. When all looks lost a new Titan appears and begins to slaughter its fellow Titans. Could this new monster be a blessing in disguise, or is the truth something much more sinister?"--P. [4] of cover.

After confronting a Titan beyond the wall, Kuklo cannot reach the safety of the wall before being forced to fight for his survival.

"FACING ANNIHILATION. The Survey Corps's quest for the truth of the world inside the Walls has brought them back to Titan-infested Shiganshina District, a mere stone's throw from Eren's childhood home. They have come to execute Erwin's final gambit, reclaiming Wall Maria and the secrets of humanity's past. But the Colossus Titan, the Armored Titan, and the Beast Titan have been waiting for them, and saving humanity will require the most difficult...

"Xavi Inocencio, the man who implicated Kuklo in Dario's murder (and who also happens to be Sharle's brother), has joined the Military Police on Captain Gloria's recommendation. This puts the royal government's most powerful tools at his disposal in his search for Kuklo and Sharle. Meanwhile, Kuklo leaves Sharle behind in the Industrial City, heading to Shiganshina District to try the temperamental and dangerous "device" against a real Titan..." --...
