Sand Chronicles, Vol. 1 by Hinako Ashihara
4.0

A nice beginning. It was a little confusing at first, figuring out who was who and when, but after things got sorted, an enjoyable story. I felt sympathy for Ann and her predicament, and am sufficiently hooked that I want to continue on.
The artwork was acceptable – a little less clear than I’d like (although I do have a problem telling people apart in general, so this could just be me). I did like the cute little interjections the characters made, and even the artist’s sidebars were non-annoying.
