I initially requested the galley because of the artwork, and it didn’t disappoint. The art is beautiful, rich colours and vibrant scenes. The action was good and face-paced, but the story felt somewhat lacking at some points. No specific issues or problems, just… it didn’t go as deep as I wanted it to go into the characters. It felt like there was so much rich history and culture to explore with the characters and their tribes, not to mention the mystery of how the story begins, but it just skimmed the surface. I’m hoping that since this is volume 1, it was more of a taster and volume 2 will have greater depth. The graphics made me forget any deficiencies though! Eagerly looking forward to the next installment.
Overall, an very good read, beautiful artwork, and intriguing characters. I’d recommend it to any Fables or Elf Quest fan. ( )
