Love the art style, characters fell a bit short but ultimately an enjoyable read.
adventurous challenging hopeful fast-paced

what a beautiful story. the illustration is breathtaking. it speaks powerfully on empire, identity, complicity, history / memory / storytelling, how the gears of the war machine keep going, and more.
