The Sword #1


For a glorious day of weekend reviews we will start of with The Sword #1


This was written and pencilled by The Luna Brothers
The art was great. I can see why some say that the Luna Brothers art is love or hate but i am definatly in the Like camp (yeah i know that is not love but let a boy get there).
The Writing was very good as well. I have heard that the brothers writing can be very cryptic and sometimes hard to follow and I like cryptic but this book was pretty straight forward. The pacing was very well done. And each character was voiced differently. really what more can you ask for in the writing.
The Story was really good for a number 1. We are basically following the life of an English Professor and his family, especially his daughter who is a handicapped girl in a wheel chair. The whole book is basically a day in the life of this family until we get to the end when two strangers show up at the end and we are left with a Question of Mistaken Identity or Is it? (insert creepy music here)
I would give this book a shot and i am looking to try the girls. if anyone can tell me anything about that series leave me some comments. i love reading them.
