Beautiful and bold in both its art and storyline, Squire is such a passionate tale of honor, family, friendship, and what one does to protect those. 

Shamma is a Palestinian-American and this story really feels apt for todays social climate. I really recommend it not just because it’s a good graphic novel but because it’s an important metaphor for what’s happening in our real world today.

adventurous fast-paced

I picked this up on a whim during the MI Indie Book Hop and I loved it! The artwork is stunning and the author tells a compelling tale that starts as a hero's origin story and ends with
breaking the cycle of war
.

My only knock on "Squire" was how briskly it sailed through the story. I wished we had more time with these characters and got to learn more about the world. But I thoroughly enjoyed this book and would certainly read another installment!
