My son and I read the first book in this graphic novel series a few months ago. He finds it "a little weird" but didn't want us to stop reading it. :)

The saga continues. Disguised as plant people, Oona and friends are headed to Toki to light the next beacon and save her fellow sand dancers being held in a toxic prison. More friends are made, and Oona is reunited with her talented sand dancing sister, who left Oona behind to train with the Cobalt Prince in more intricate, powerful dances that could help defeat the Mimic.
The story moves too fast to be completely satisfied at the end of the book, especially knowing it was just a snippet and the next installment won't be released for several months. So is the way of the serial.

First of all, this series is just beautiful. I can't get over the art. I love just looking at the spreads, the motion, and I really enjoy the worldbuilding.
I think these are great for just about any age, so far. Simple enough for a child to follow along but with enough depth to keep an adult engaged.
