Loved the art work and story. It was great to see LGBTQ representation in 1920s Paris and how that played out. Fun characters and storyline.

It was a good story, though not what I was expecting. I thought it was going to be a high seas swashbuckling adventure, but was more of a coming to age, story of a young man. The main character Swift does seem to have the most character growth and understanding. The story moved along well and was well presented.

Having returned to this series from reading on Webtoons brought back some nostalgia. I love the characters and art work. The concept is very sweet and the plot through simple, is a good story. I can't wait to read the next one.

I think that if I had read the frist books in this series it might have made more sense. There were a lot of good moments. Good action pieces and characters.
