Another exciting, action-packed book in the Cleopatra in Space series. The journey continues as, piece by piece, Cleo learns more and more about the mysterious prophecy and how she fits into it.

I feel like there was less dialogue in this book and more fight scenes, but the story still progressed well and I enjoyed it. It wasn't all fighting, there is plenty of interpersonal relationship stuff and suspense to keep the reader entertained.

Cleo's character develops even more as we see her become more serious, but no less entertaining. The book takes on a slightly more serious tone, especially after the shocking death and major injury of some of the cadets in the third book, but it still has its humorous moments. Great adventure with very memorable characters.

I'll admit, I was a bit thrown at the end. But it was definitely a good cliff-hanger to set up the fifth book. I CAN'T WAIT TO READ IT!

THE SNOW OTTER IS MY NEW FAVORITE.

I think this one was good, but I was massively interrupted every time I started to get into the story, many times, so it took me forever to get through it.

This book really made me wonder how a language based on math would work. And it also made me think that I would miss out on a lot of the humor that they seem to be able to convey with numbers.

This series continues to be great. This volume has Cleopatra spreading her wings a bit, dealing with some consequences, and the plot feels like its moving forward in a way it wasn't before. Just a great read across the board for any comic fan out there.

This is a fun series about Cleopatra in space.

Cleo is just a regular kid, even though she is the prophesied queen from ancient Egypt. She disobeys her teachers and doesn’t keep up with her algebra homework. However, she faces much bigger consequences than an ordinary kid would face by doing the same things. She travels to distant planets and almost becomes trapped when she can’t communicate with a group of people who speak only in equations.

There is tons of action in these graphic novels. I think they would be great for reluctant readers, because there are a lot of pages without a lot of dialogue. There are some fantastic battle scenes, which look like the characters are really moving. I love the art in these comics.

I highly recommend this fun series!
