Ohhhh my goodness, I loved this SO much that I am almost freaking out a little.

I've been so disappointed by so many graphic novels lately--either the art is lovely but the story and characters are lacking/flat/rushed, or the story is good but the art is less than wonderful.

THIS book has both a fantastic, creative, complex story and wonderful characters AND gorgeous art. The worldbuilding is done well also, and it's such a lovely world, too--I want to explore more of it with Poppy and Cyrenic! (And GOSH, the bodyguard/princess romance...I love that kind of devotion, so I say YES PLEASE.)

I love this. I LOVE THIS SO MUCH, I HAVE NO WORDS. <333
