A paint-by-numbers swashbuckler. While there were tidbits of originality in the first volume, this one didn't present anything that rose above the static.

[Δημήτρης Αθανασόπουλος · Rating 4 out of 5]

As the previous volume, a good sword and sorcery story but a out of place for Sinbad

[Taylor Troncin · Rating 4 out of 5]

Still not my favorite storyline of the Grimm Fairy Tale series - but not bad either. I'm extra annoyed because it looks like there might only be these two volumes...?

The team defeats Terrae Motus with the help of Oz (the girl). They have the crown of anubis now which was the second piece that they needed in the Jericho visor.

This contines from where the previous Sinbad volume leaves off. It does have a prelude that is concluded in Grimm Fairy Tales Vol 6, I at least was able to read it in full since I happen to own both volumes. This one is just as full of adventure and funny banter between the Sinbad's crew and Sinbad. It really works well and the timing is spot on! But I really enjoyed this one and can't wait to read the rest of the stories.

A good volume, with some character development and the prospect of great things to come.

Good Art and Story Flow.A different take on Sinbad the Sailor, as the story focuses on development of the crew and there past in each of the volumes. Sad they stopped the production midway only after two arcs.
