A mix
Wow, this was such a gorgeous graphic novel. Visually impeccable. And the story is fascinating.
I found myself struggling just a bit with some of the time jumps because they were not always labeled or easily identifiable. (I do think there were some nice differentiations with the color pallets used, but, again, it was not always easy to spot.) I did find my groove towards the end though.
I'll absolutely be continuing this series.
