MY REVIEW:
5 STARS
Okay I'm only going to put a few pictures because you can all
scroll through the other reviewers and see more pictures. I don't like
reviewing graphic novels because I never know exactly what to say.
This novel is about Maika Halfwolf and she has been trying to find her way for some time. She lost her mother and friends to a war. She lost one of her arms, but she has some kind of powers and she has a symbol on her chest that may or may not be the cause of this . . .
This novel is very dark but I still loved it. I mean you have all these people things eating other people things and chopping people things up.
There is this one dude that I think is hot in the novel. His name is Corvin D'Oro and I'm not going to show you a picture. Lol
So, Maika poses as a slave to get to this one person and then some of the kid/things she is with gets tortured and eaten etc. Maika goes postal and kills a bunch of people, supposedly it only happens when she gets really mad. Then she finds some crazy woman that knew her mother and she kills her and takes a mask that lady has <--- big mistake because, said mask, turns into some demon thing in her stump arm. Yeah, I know, it's cray but it happens. It's totally cool. Well, maybe not because it makes her eat people/things. And she has an ongoing conversation with it at times. Okay, so they argue because she wants it out of her.
Meanwhile, the novel goes back and forth from Maika's past to the present. We find out some things and get confused in other things.
There are also unicorn horses that you ride. I would love that.
There are talking cats with more than one tail! I liked Master Ren that was going around with Maika and the little fox girl named Kippa!
Anyway, I thought the story was great, morbid yes, but great! I am looking forward to these novels. And I love Marjorie Liu, I have read some of her books from back in the day!
