A review by dark_reader
Saga, Vol. 5 by Brian K. Vaughan

4.0

I started getting a little bored in this volume, during my current re-read to catch up on the series (which at this time is up to volume 9). This was the furthest that I had read previously, so beyond this it will be a new experience. My beef with this volume is that it seemed to create conflict merely for conflict's sake, to keep Hazel's family in distress. And somehow, the prospect of collecting dragon spunk was unexciting; is it possible for giant monster genitals to become boring? If so, this series is where it will happen. I also don't see the point of Gwendolyn and Sophie acting together.

It is possible that blitzing this series is not the best way to ingest it, but at some points it really requires a re-reading due to the frequency of life-changing events that beset all of the characters.
