And the entire universe is obsessed with killing this loving couple and getting their hands on the first cross-species baby. Alana is a fan of a trashy space romance book - but a SUBVERSIVE one, clearly. Instead of murdering each other they decide to get together and procreate, creating baby Hazel, whose birth opens the series. ![]() Synopsis: two aliens - Alana and Marko - belong to two warring factions in a galactic war. I owed this to Dennis - a solemn promise made when I insisted that he read Stephen King’s The Waste Lands, the book that I loved and he read all wrong □.Īnd because unlike the hordes of long-suffering fans who have been awaiting for Volume 10 for years (!!!) I have the privilege of reading them all as a binge (because yes, I already got them all), I’ll be posting my thoughts here, as I go (under spoiler tags because it’s LONG! Because 1300 comic book pages!!!!) ![]() With the exception of Persepolis: The Story of a Childhood which I read for a college class back in 2004, this is my first foray into the land of comic books. And, in the midst of all that, overpowering adorable cuteness, vulnerability and love.Īnd then it rips your heart into shreds. Plus copious swearing, gratuitous nudity, well-aimed violence. The story that focuses of people in the middle of ridiculous senseless war and breaks your heart without thinking twice. Insane space opera with breathtaking artwork. Irreverently funny and achingly heartbreaking. Final rating: 5 unflinchingly heartbreaking stars. ![]() The full-color comic is basically 'Conan the Barbarian' in MARPAT.Reviewing as I go: “Saga”, 1300+ pages of comics. Written by 'Terminal Lance' creator Maximilian Uriarte, this full-length graphic novel follows a Marine infantry squad on a bloody odyssey through the mountain reaches of northern Afghanistan. As Klay’s prophetic novel shows, the machinery of technology, drones, and targeted killings that was built on the Middle East battlefield will continue to grow in far-flung lands that rarely garner headlines. It took Klay six years to research and write the book, which follows four characters in Colombia who come together in the shadow of our post-9/11 wars. I loved Phil Klay’s first book, Redeployment (which won the National Book Award), so Missionaries was high on my list of must-reads when it came out in October. Have a recommendation of your own? Send an email to and we'll include it in a future story. Here's a brief list of some of the best books we read here at Task & Purpose in the last year. Between the political unrest and novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, it's difficult to look back on the year and find something, anything, that was a potential bright spot in an otherwise turbulent trip around the sun. Luckily, there were a few bright spots: namely, some of the excellent works of military history and analysis, fiction and non-fiction, novels and graphic novels that we've absorbed over the last year. Let's be real: 2020 has been a nightmare. Features over 1,300 pages of gorgeously graphic full-color artwork, including a new cover from Eisner Award-winning SAGA co-creator FIONA STAPLES. THE ULTIMATE BINGE-READ Collecting the first nine volumes of the critically acclaimed, New York Times bestselling series into one massive paperback, this compendium tells the entire story (so far!) of a girl named Hazel and her star-crossed parents.
