This series just keeps getting better! The artwork is consistently gorgeous, the character development is fantastic, and the worldbuilding is insane.

Also, this volume was such an emotional rollercoaster.

We learn more about Hazel's family's time at Heist's, which I loved (I loved every moment with Heist 🥺). We also followed Will, Gwendolyn, Slave Girl (new name: Sophie) and Lying Cat, who are all stranded on a seemingly nice and picturesque planet. Finally, we are introduced to two new characters - Lipsher and Doff - who are reporters investigating Alana and Marko's story

Re-read in preparation for Saga Vol. 10
Now this is where the story really takes off. Seeing the intense chase for Marko and Alana and Hazel really pick up was so much fun, and you really got to know all the characters a lot better in this volume than the second one. I did also really enjoy seeing more of the intricacies of Marko and Alana's relationship, as well as seeing more of Doff and Upsher.
So far probably my favorite volume.

Still very engaging, although the vulgar-ness is starting to overstay its welcome for me.

A lot more focus on philosophy, but absolutely smashed it as usual. I’m just obsessed.
