This is another favorite comic series that keeps things interesting. As the war approaches, Flycatcher's story really made this volume a special addition to the series. These issues clarify some of the big picture conflict, give depth to a few characters, and while I didn't like the artwork for issue #64 I still appreciate that the series experiments with the artistic aspect (and this series consistently has phenomenal covers). Looking forward to what comes next!

I love Flycatcher. Also I definitely didn't cry. Not at all.

I really enjoyed this volume.

It was good to finally have Flycatcher step into the limelight an what a wonderful story! This is the first volume where it a actually feels like a fairly story, helped because if the fantastical nature of his adventure/trials and it being set in the Homelands. Throughout the series so far Flycatcher has been in the background and always dependable and now given the opportunity to take his place in the worlds was nice to see.

I can't help but feel that Volume 10: The Good Prince will be the calm before the storm!

Seriously WOW
How could u turn flycatcher into such a king only heard of in legends?
How could u destroy the kingdom so utterly and absolutely easily?
Its amazing i loved it.
It all made perfect sense.
Flycatcher looked like a prophet from the books sent from a god.
But wait a minute is he really sent from a god or from frau totenkinder?!
hmm hmm frau is proving time and again that she is playing a major role in this epic journey
If u keep it up this way it will only get better and better.
Now how can u top this ?!!!

I really enjoyed the story of the rise of Flycatcher. I didn’t expect him to get such an amazing arc in those series
