I saw this series at our library and picked it up. Both me and my 10 year old son enjoy middle grade fantasy graphic novels so this looked interesting. It ended up being a well done and entertaining fantasy graphic novel.
The characters are decently developed and Dessa has a lot of history that is presented in this novel . Dessa was fun to read about and full of determination to find her brother. She is helped along by a couple of goofy non-human characters named Topper and Fisk.
There is a lot of action in here as well as entertaining acrobatic stunts and thievery. Although the story is pretty straight-forward it does have some depth to it as well; there is unrest in the kingdom and you can tell the Captain of the Guard is a noble man who is troubled by the kingdoms larger scale issues.
The illustration is pretty typical cartoon style and is well done. It's easy to follow what's going on in the story and the illustration adds a lot to the story as well.
Overall I enjoyed this, it was a fun classic fantasy style graphic novel. The characters and story are entertaining the illustration is decently done and easy to follow. I would recommend to fans of middle grade fantasy graphic novels.
