Fullmetal Alchemist Volume 3 Equivalent Exchange The Viridian Collection

Relive the magic...at a great low price! The Fullmetal Alchemist, Edward Elric, is given his first assignment. He is to inspect the coalmines of Youswell, a task he believes to be Mustang?s attempt to deter his search for the Philosopher?s Stone. Ignoring direct orders Ed and Al take a detour to a popular tourist town hoping to uncover the smallest fragment of truth behind the Stone?s growing legend. There they encounter a thief with enough tricks to keep the detectives busy for decades. Yet a tip from this unlikely source leads them into an adventure more startling than they could have ever imagined. Ed and Al arrive in Xenotime, once a prosperous gold-mining settlement. But Xenotime?s gold has been exhausted, and its economy is crumbling. Its only hope: two alchemists who are developing an artificial Philosopher?s Stone to rejuvenate the mines. Their names? Edward and Alphonse Elric!
