Rezension von SanDer Zeichenstil ist ganz cool gemacht und gewählt - passt zu dem Setting ganz gut. Der Plot ist an sich interessant, für mich war allerdings irgendwann etwas die Luft raus. Es sprang immer Mal etwas hin und her von den zeitlichen Abläufen - gehörte aber dazu, denn so wurde einiges erklärt. Mir war es aber etwas zu wild und ich wusste teilweise einfach nicht mehr so richtig, in welchem Zeitstrang wir uns ungefähr befinden. Zu den Charakteren bekam ich irgendwie kaum einen Draht, was mich schon etwas traurig gemacht hat. Sprachlich war's an einigen Stellen etwas komplex, da musste ich paar Dinge googlen. Die Bilder allein erzählen an sich aber auch schon viel. Ich kann gar nicht so genau sagen, was mich nun “gestört” hat - ich wurde einfach nicht richtig warm damit..
