This wasn't the most intricate or realistic story ever written---it was really just about two beings being thrown into each others' paths and was kinda instalove-y---but I enjoyed it! Honestly, it was the artwork that really drew me in and that I loved the most. The coloring was simplistic with mostly a soft blue-ish white and green-ish sepia tones, plus the occasional splash of red for blood, but it worked in a way that was gorgeous, and the drawings themselves were gorgeous too. I did enjoy the characters and the story too though. Both characters were so sassy in such a dry kind of way. And once I learned Galdranorn's story and saw the things he'd written in the journal, I felt terrible for the poor man and could understand why he was such a misanthrope. And the romance was sweet, though do be aware there's a lot of nudity and some very explicit x-rated activity. From what I understand, it's just the beginning of what's supposed to be a whole longer thing, but I can't find any more about these two. This works well enough alone though just as a story about two characters falling in love and one of them getting a kind of second chance to have a better life.

I liked the same things about this one as I liked about the previous volumes---great characters, fun supernatural stuff, gorgeous art. This one also had more story, like the last volume. The twists were good too. It was a fun read. And I was cracking up so much when Amon was going off on this whole passionate speech about skee ball. It was such a random, unexpected thing for anyone to be so passionate about, let alone a many-thousand-year-old, snazzily-dressing, brandy/whiskey-drinking, formal mummy. This is a really short review, but I don't really know what else to say other than this is just a cool series.

I don't know why, but this series has been going downhill for me :-/ It wasn't that I didn't enjoy this while reading, but so far I've found each volume less funny than the previous one, and this one just didn't leave much of an impression on me. I barely even remembered what happened in it an hour after reading it. Part of the problem might be that I wasn't even sure what any of the characters were trying to do. I know Suzie and Jon want revenge on the sex cops, but I didn't see how contacting the others like them were going to help them accomplish that. Same for Myrtle and how I didn't understand why she was sleeping with the psychiatrist. So I guess I was entertained while reading, but not particularly invested.
