Well hello new characters. I think I enjoyed this volume moreso because now everyone has a personal stake in the family's little drama.

I also enjoyed seeing some bits of Alana and Marko bonding before Hazel came to be. Marko's parents are not what I expected. I need Prince Roboto the Fourth to find himself a new hobby I really dislike him. ( )

Saga simply has no right to be as good as it is!

It's all amazing, but #11 took every ounce of strength I have to not spit take my coffee as I was cracking up at the post coitus dialogue and in the same issue I first got choked up and then was actually crying by the end.

Oh yeah, because of The Will's fantasies about The Stalk, I'm now a monster fucker, I guess? Cheers for that. ( )

In this continuation of the series we backtrack to the early days when Alana, the soldier, and Marko, the prisoner, met, and how everything unfolded for them to be together. We also learn about a romance novel that is secretly (or not so secretly) causing soldiers to rebel against war.

Highly entertaining with stunning art. Recommended for 18 . Very mature subject matter. ( )

I was reading this on the plane home for a weekend. I spent the ride snickering to myself and slowly realizing that I shouldn't be reading it in a public place!

I love Saga's usually humorous, sometimes dark, but overall matter-of-fact treatment of sex and sexuality. I think this was the volume with a lot of fourth-wall pinging humor that made me laugh out loud more than once. For instance, turning the page and being slammed with a full-page pin-up of Marko saying "Oh, do keep reading."

Also, can I just say: the cover. The cover. I have stared at it for up to 15 minutes at a time, and I could go on staring at it forever. Wow. So much story there---the blood, the wings of some unknown dying creature, the sword, and Marko's vague and distracted look---in one simple panel. ( )
