An amazing adaptation of one of my favorite arcs!! ❤  while I was sad to see certain scenes taken out or shortened, I can understand the need for it, and it really didn't dampen my enjoyment of the story. I was smiling and laughing the whole time! It's so wonderful to see all the twists and turns of The Crystal Kingdom in a new form!

And I just wanna add that Carey Pietsch has outdone herself with the art in this book!! All the designs of the new characters and the intricate designs of the lab and crystals are just amazing!!! I can't wait to see what she does with The Eleventh Hour!❣

also I'm dying over the new scenes of flirting between Taako and Kravitz 🥺🥰 what a treat!

Re: Body horror:

The body horror is explicit amputation. There's no blood and it's just the one panel. After that the stump is covered. It's also not traumatising to the characters involved in the scene, although it is upsetting for them.
