*sigh*
It's becoming increasing clear that no matter what BKV has up his sleeve, I don't think he'll be able to adequately close out Ex Machina on a high note. Only two volumes left and we're getting new characters being introduced and story threads from three volumes ago that are still left dangling with no resolution in sight. For some of the highs this story has reached, Ex Machina can really spin its wheels at times.

Eh, this installment really didn't do anything for me. The whole "Trouble" character and subplot I just couldn't get into for the life of me. And it didn't really culminate in anything overly interesting so I had a hard time keeping interest. Easily the weakest volume of the series.

Kind of Meh, really didn't advance the plot at all. I'm running very hot and cold on this series. Love the SciFi aspect of the story, but I'm not really liking the politics so much. It doesn't really seem to blend very well, although I guess it has the potential.

Still a fair series. This volume was better than most. Hit-or-miss art, some fair intrigue, a cool premise, and better handling of storylines - This was kind of a fun entry in the series and I'm curious to see how the story starts to wrap up.

Another solid entry in the Ex Machina series. I really liked this collection and I'm excited and sad for the series finale coming soon.

Mayor Hundred has to deal with the issue of masked KKK members wanting to hold a rally...yet Hundred himself hid behind a mask. Will he actually allow the rally or will he be a hypocrite?
Quick read & (as usual) more is revealed about Hundred's past.

Still finding this series rather middling in quality. This is a vast improvement over vol 7 but doesn't really get the overall plot moving that much.
