Description: R.O.D: Read or Die
Mysterious figures known only as I-Jin, who appear to be the clones of history's most remarkable individuals, attack! In response to these attacks, the Royal British Library's Division of Special Operations sends one of its most unique operatives: Yomiko Readman, a mild mannered bookworm with the unusual ability to manipulate paper in any way she sees fit. Yomiko is aided by the likes of Nancy Makumari and Drake Anderson to face the threat of the I-Jin.
