I started reading this story as a webcomic and was then was very delighted to see it released in print! Nyneve has grown up in the witch kingdom of Hyalin, where the strength of a person's magic is linked to the length of their hair. Short-haired witched are teased and shunned, but witches whose hair is too long are deemed dangerous, potential enemies of the state. Nyneve's long-haired father was burned by the Witch Guard when she was young, and ever since then she's hidden her long hair. But she and her classmates have reached the age of mandatory conscription and when she is chosen as a future member of the Guard, her whole life is thrown into chaos. This volume is just the beginning of what is clearly going to be a big story-- indeed, there are over 400 pages posted to the webcomic site (https://www.witchycomic.com/) and I was happy to see volume 2 is slated for released in early 2022. I love the art and the coloring and I'm very curious to see where this story goes!

I struggled a lot with the world-building in this graphic novel. Magic systems are notoriously tricky to create, and the central concept of this one didn't make much sense to me.

Great characters, beautiful and vibrant art, a super cool and unique magic system based around hair - can’t wait for the next one!

3.5 I liked this. I just don't know if graphic novels are my thing. I got this in an Owl Crate a long time ago, and I decided to finally read it so I could take it to school for my kids who are obsessed with graphic novels.
