I thought this deserved a few more chapters or one more volume since the ending was so fast. But really great story and characters that deconstruct how history is told by empire.

4.5

a great story that's beautifully illustrated!

it's clear that a lot of work, hopes, dreams, counter-narratives, corrective narratives, fantasy, childhood, love, anger, fear, frustration, joy, history, and research went into this work. 3.5/5.

read on Libby.

what a delightful treat i love fantasy settings that 1) deal with colonialism and 2) feature non-european backgrounds. the art is SOOOO good and i cant help but just DRINK so much of it in - it’s truly truly such a beautiful book!!!!
