A review by wanderingwordsmith
The Sunken Tower by Tait Howard
3.0
*I received a copy of this book from the publisher in exchange for an honest review.
I think the best word for this graphic novel is fun, because it is exactly that. We follow Digby (or Dig), whose past we don't know much about, as he tries to survive and unfortunately gets captured to be part of a sacrifice. What follows is a hilarious adventure while he and his new found friends do their best to escape. This is a misadventure with a number of twists and turns and an astounding sense of humor. I did enjoy the art style which was very quirky and perfectly fit the story.
I think this is meant as a standalone, but I wouldn't say no to further volumes that delved more into who the characters are as I feel that's the only area where it was a little lacking. You don't really know much about who the main characters are, even Dig. It would be nice to explore that more and I could definitely see them having more misadventures together.
