Fence Vol. 2
by C. S. Pacat
June 2022. A graphic novel series about a high school fencing team at an all-boys boarding school. It gives vibes of a possible very slow burn romance between the two leads, but we mostly see gay romance from unrequited crushes of side characters and a side character playboy type.
Our main character is a scrappy underdog who is determined to fence because his father who abandoned him is a famous fencer, and our other lead is a rival who is a wealthy and well-trained elite. Naturally they can’t stand each other, are nothing alike, and are forced to become roommates.
I really like that this series builds up the personalities and friendships between a variety of characters, and takes it’s time building our leads from enemies to rivals with genuine respect for one another.
So far there are 4 volumes out and I read them all in one sitting, as ebooks through the Libby app (can get ebooks and audiobooks free through your local library). I’m looking forward to checking out volume 5 when it comes out later this year.
