MILWAUKIE, Ore., (June 12, 2024)— Dark Horse Books and ROUND8 Studio invite readers to explore the mysterious and thrilling world of The Lies of P in a beautiful new art book, The Art of Lies of P.

The Art of Lies of P is a darkly fantastic journey through the creation of the video game sensation.

Geppetto’s puppet is trapped in a web of lies. Fierce monsters and devious figures stand between the would-be real boy and the truth: who unleashed the plague that has plunged the once prosperous city of Krat into madness and blood lust? In Lies of P, an embattled puppet must adapt his weapons and his body to face untold horrors, untangle unfathomable secrets, and confront the consequences of both honesty and deceit.
The Art of Lies of P hardcover has 224 pages and measures 9 by 12 inches. It will be available in bookstores on November 12, 2024, and in comic shops on November 13, 2024.
