Raised by a mysterious sorcerer after the horrific death of his

in a battle between two more powerful Magus, Shiro finds himself
performing a spell above his expected ability, summoning the beautiful
spirit warrior Saber to protect him! But safety is only momentary as
Shiro and Saber now find themselves thrust into in a secret world of
dark magic and deadly challenges: a no-holds barred duel to the death
known as the Holy Grail War! At stake: a prize of unimaginable power.
But can the inexperienced Shiro and Saber survive long enough to even
enter the contest? First they'll have to withstand waves of treachery
and assassination, even as Shiro scrambles to learn everything he'll
need to know to stay alive as seven teams of Magus and Spirit Servants
face off in mortal combat! The ultimate game of death and magic unfolds
as the Holy War erupts in FATE/STAY NIGHT!

SRP: $69.98
SYNOPSIS:
The Holy Grail War continues to escalate as a series of shocking
revelations explain the history connecting Saber to Excalibur. In a
lethal game of chess, pawns and knights are expended one by one, slowly
whittling down the number of surviving players. And as a massive wave
of comas begins to take down the cities, it becomes clear that the only
possible path to victory is an assault on the Master and Servants of the
Ryudoji Shrine! But when Sakura is taken with the intention of
sacrificing her in order to summon the Grail, Shiro is forced to choose
between two equally lethal options: Let Saber's mana continue at its
existing level, almost certainly insuring her death as the battle wages
on; or resupply her mana from his own magical circuit, reducing his
power below that of the other Magus, and leaving both of them open to
magical attack. The price of winning could mean potentially losing
everything in the climactic conclusion of FATE/STAY NIGHT!
