Beautiful art, interesting story. Only if author doesn't try to shock you with some or other perversion coming out of mind and action of the story antagonists. Original Metabaron books had similar tendency for rather sick (no better word unfortunately) story twists but it took like 6 books to get to the point where everything looked ..... weird. And all of that did serve as story support element (surprisingly enough). After the original story arc it seem that only goal is how to shock the reader. In my opinion unnecessary and diverts attention from main story.
Amazing art, mediocre but quite captivating story, but too sadistic and way too info-dumpy.
