I really enjoyed this volume, and it was a very good read.  The storytelling and writing style is simply superb.  It was consistent and didn't lose pace.  And the world in which the story takes place is very unique.

It took me a while to get my hands on it, but I thoroughly enjoyed Volume 2!  The cast of characters introduced in these issues are just as captivating as the ones we met in Volume 1. 

I'm really digging the whole "Angela Bassett in Waiting to Exhale" vibe that Gwendolyn has going on.

  I'm also really impressed by the artwork in this volume - the coloring is absolutely gorgeous.  Maybe it's because I had such a big gap between Volume 1 and 2, but I don't remember being this enamored by the artwork in Volume 1.  It was great, but the artwork in Volume 2 seems to be at another level.

I'm looking forward to starting Volume 3 hopefully soon, where I'll continue to wonder if Moonfall's language is based on Italian.
