Die 5 Reiche

Harald Sachse and Lewelyn’s Die 5 Reiche, published by Splitter Verlag from 2020 onward, is a sprawling fantasy epic that unfolds across fifteen issues and counting. With Jérôme Lereculey’s richly detailed art bringing its warring kingdoms to life, the series explores the fragile alliances and ancient conflicts that bind—and threaten to shatter—its five distinct realms. A modern German-language saga that channels classic high fantasy, it matters for its ambitious world-building and sustained, creator-driven vision.
