I wasn't overly fond of this book. I felt like there was too much of it. There were too many stories crammed together, and I didn't care enough about the characters. I wish there had been actual comic book panels - how cool would that have been? Historical fiction is not my cup of tea, so if you like that genre, you'll probably love this book. Me? Not so much. I felt like it was a bit pretentious and overly complicated. Still, not a bad story. I chose to listen to the audiobook of this sped up to 2X the normal speed, so it went by fairly quickly.
