Reread #1:

I could not return this to the library without giving it another read! This series is just brilliant. Everything from the writing to the art to the characterisation and plotline is done to perfection. The more I read about them, the more and more I fall in love with these characters, especially Marko, and Upsher and Doff. This volume was probably one of my favourite of the series so far. I loved seeing how much Hazel, Alana, and Marko have matured since the last volume and the introduction of new characters - particularly Petriocher and Squire - was welcomed.

I cannot wait for the next volume's release - mainly for more Upsher and Doff.

Original Read: This serious always amazes me. The artwork, the characters, the story, the themes... it's brilliant.
