Rating: 2.5 stars

Divine Intervention was a very quick read (slowed only by the way my phone formatted it terribly, but I'm not blaming the book for my phone's sins). Divine Intervention puts forward an absolutely interesting concept. I like the premise set out at the end of this story, playing into some of my absolute loves (superhero figures and mistaken identities) but this entry itself felt a little overburdened by exposition. Perhaps that's just me reading from the perspective of someone who has experience with RPG/D&D genres (because this did feel a lot like a D&D session) but I felt like there were huge chunks of information squeezed into the middle of scenes that created a slightly broken pace. Readers with less knowledge about traditional RPG classes and deity systems might appreciate this though. The art style was fun, and didn't distract from the story, and I did love that the characters were diverse. I think I would have enjoyed this potentially more if it was two volumes, and the information dumps were spread out a little more to make it feel a bit more natural, but overall this was an interesting read and I will probably keep an eye out for the remainder of the series. If you like RPG/D&D/questing adventurers, you will probably enjoy this story.


I received a free copy of this book in exchange for a review.
