A great second half. While the first half of this volume was a bit weaker than the rest of the series it still sets things up nicely. But the final 6 issues are excellent. They showcase a whole new civilization in a great way, epic moments of death and triumph. Forgiveness and hope. Love and conquer. So many emotions, so many themes. If you read Book One and Two together, this is a epic classic adventure of survival and hope that I could NOT get enough of.
