3.5 stars.

I was a little iffy on whether or not this premise would be for me. I like fantasy, but for some reason space and alien type stuff just isn't really much in my wheelhouse. But...there was a LOT of hype about this series, so I decided to pick it up. I admit...I'm warming to it.

The artwork is absolutely amazing. There are great details and a lot of detail. The story has a ton of imagination to it and the characters are interesting and diverse. It's a little weird, but I'm starting to like that about it.

I went it thinking I would probably DNF the series...I finished finding myself somewhat invested in the story and curious about where it would go. I was put off by some of the more "adult" content present in the story as it seemed a bit gratuitous, but I was still interested in the plot. So...this gets an "okay" from me with the caveat that I now have interest in the series and I will be reading volume 2. I'm guessing my ratings will go up as I continue the series, but we will see. I will say that I understand the hype and it's beginning to suck me in...
