What? Now let me start this with I loved the images. The images were probably the best part. Everything else *flushes down the toilet* This may be harsh for a graphic novel, but I didn't understand what the story was or really where it was going. Even then I had no frame of reference for the characters, the setting, the plot. Hence the, what?

The authors could've set up the first parts of this better. It's a no for me dawg.

A visually beautiful book. It’s higher fantasy than I am used to and would have appreciated a slightly slower pace so I could learn more about the world and the characters. That said, I would read the next volume.

The illustrations in this book are GORGEOUS! The story is interesting and I look forward to seeing where they go from here. My only real criticism is there were a few typos/misspellings that pulled me out of the story a couple times.

I just want to point out that the art was was above and beyond five stars for me. However, the story was just so rushed and confusing at times. I’m wondering if there was something I was supposed to read before this? It just seems like it threw me into the world like I should have already known all about the way things work and about the gods, but I had no clue. I just wish the story felt as well worked and complete as the artwork.
