A marvelous prelude to a wonderful story. The art is sublime. The story telling fantastic.
As always the interpretation of the reader is needed but worth the time and effort.

i think a five star rating would be most fit for this series as a whole but nonetheless this was a great, gripping, and unique experience with the most beautiful illustrations i’ve ever seen; a great first read
