Reviews

[Joel Hansen · Rating 5 out of 5]

Some of the landscapes in this volume are absolutely gorgeous. The lighting as well. From the huge rig on the scorching desert, to the throes of a snowy Light City, everything just seems bigger. Story-wise, it gets deeper, as secrets are revealed about Dino's past and Nirvana's mother. There are some crazy "unseen realm" creatures to see, many reunions of different kinds. I have no idea how it will all end.

While the last one in this series through me for a couple of loops, this one leading up to it maintained the pace of the other four. Beautifully illustrated, complex intertwining of visual and prose storytelling, great cat.
