Sleeper Season Two by Ed Brubaker, Sean Phillips

5.0

Excellent! Seriously, this is so good. I think at some point reading it I must have stopped breathing.

Sleeper: Season Two continues from Sleeper: Season One (I know, who would've guessed). Where Season One dealt mostly with Holden trying to get out from his position as undercover agent, Season Two finds him very much entangled in the plans of Tao and Lynch. There are conspiracies and double-crosses and triple-crosses, and a wonderfully fucked up romance. This book had me at the edge of my seat the whole time, and there quite a few unexpected twists and turns.

The only thing I didn't like was the origin story of one particular villain in this one, but it didn't have any impact on the rest of the story (which may be part of why it bugged me? I don't know.). Other than that, a really great book.
