This was a fun little story. It took me about an hour to get through to the 'best' ending but there was definitely a loop of bad endings I got caught in because I cannot resist any option that sounds like I'm going to meet my boy, Kylo Ren. Either way, this is a very fun kid's book. It's simplified, and everything is very much 'set to stun'. But it was fun, and I bet kids would get a lot of enjoyment out of playing through and trying to find the good endings (I found two, and I think that's all of them but I might be wrong). I did find that, especially at the beginning, I hit a LOT of bad endings in a short space of time. Some kids might find that frustrating (I'm 22 and it was starting to wear THIN) but once I was past the first section of the book and into the main storyline it slowed down a bit and I found a lot more enjoyable when I wasn't backtracking all the time. The illustrations are amazing though, and I loved those as an addition to the story. Particularly one of an incredibly grumpy looking Kylo Ren.

Still an enjoyable adventure though, and I'm looking forward to Han & Chewie and Luke & Leia when those show up next year at some point.

I received an eARC of this book from Oni Press. This has not affected my honest review.

I think the second volume of The Underfoot is definitely stronger than the first! The art style is just as wonderful as the first volume, but this one felt faster paced because we already knew the worldbuilding. I still love the characters, they're super endearing, and I adore the premise. I think the plot of this one was a little more coherent and it was a lot of fun to read. I'm looking forward to reading more, particularly as I wanna know what the scales are up to!

My only critique really is that there is a LOT of characters. A lot of a lot, and seemingly more coming every volume. I think that the individuality is there, but because there are so many, they get lost to the crowd a bit. I'd love more of a focus on the smaller groups, so I could get to know each character better. Despite that, though, I really did enjoy this and will keep an eye out for the next volume.

cried a bunch at this oop
