One Trick Pony by Nathan Hale

4.0

This young adult graphic novel was a quick, enjoyable read. A post-apocalyptic story following an invasion of aliens that consume/destroy anything technological witnesses bands of people wandering around in primitive conditions and one group taking the risk to dodge the aliens while preserving humanity's cultural and technological legacy. Some boys wander off, find a mechanical/robot horse, and embark on a series of adventures that eventually resolve the fate of the world they are living in. Nice artwork, creative premise, a better-than-average plot, and a certain amount of character development around the children as they are thrust into greater responsibility.
