A really lovely graphic novel. The art is lovely and the world is colorful and beautiful to look at. I loved Nyneve, and I think that having her be haunted by grief and making bad decisions out of her trauma was really moving and wonderful to read. I also liked that this series just set in a queer world, which I always adore. An overall fun read, I'm excited to see where it goes.
From what I understand, this is part of an ongoing webseries, so it's not like this is the end, but I can't help feel that the ending of this book was a little awkward. I don't know where that cut off point could have been, but it just felt very abrupt.
