I'm so glad I waited to read these graphic novels until they were all out so that I could binge them back-to-back like I just did, because I was totally hooked on this trilogy of volumes and couldn't put them down! This was my least favorite of the graphic novels in one sense, because as I mentioned in my review of the first volume, the art style made fight scenes hard to follow at times, and that problem was more noticeable to me in this volume than the previous two. On the other hand, though, I enjoyed Maxim's character the most in this volume as we got to see how much he had progressed away from an arrogant, cocky princeling, into this disciplined, brave man who knows what he has to lose and what he needs to prove. Well done yet again, Schwab!
