You can tell that a manga is going to be worth your time when the author and the editorial team take the time (and pages) to give an overview of the origin story and how an unknown manga from 1988 was revived almost 30 years later.

The manga is split in two. The first section is the story of the original “Black Beth” as envisioned by Blas Gallego. It is a black & white publication depicting how Beth was robbed of her simple life and her training to become the skilled warrior from Rassau’s prophecy.

The second section continues Black Beth’s story on another adventure, but this time in a coloured format. This time, Beth has to stop an evil warlock from their sacrificial plan.

Overall, I liked that the story was easy to read, and the fact that the second story sticks to the original character development of Beth. I’m sure that fans of dark, YA, and fantasy will enjoy this read.

Special thanks to NetGalley, Rebellion, and the editorial team for giving me the opportunity to review the ARC, and to you, my reader, for taking the time to read this honest personal book review.
