This was disappointing yet slightly better than the Imbalance Trilogy. I’m not a fan of Faith Erin Hick’s writing/dialogue style. They tend to tell and not show. The dialogue is significantly different than Gene Luen Yang’s. The writing paired with the illustration changes makes this disappointing. Although, like I said, not as disappointing as the Imbalance Trilogy, which I would overall rate as a 2.5.
