One massive disclaimer of the book that can't really be overlooked, is that I would not recommend this book to children or teenagers or really anyone, Christian or Non-Christian. Even though the characters called themselves "Christian" they often belittle Christianity, and the book as I thought would bring in Christ has no mention of Him. The book also includes an lgbt relationship, partnering with pagan/wiccan teen groups, and the church is akin to an oppressive entity. Anyone who is not a Christian will think the Church is a bad place while Christians might be persuaded to go against the teachings of the Bible and might agree/disagree with the book. Either way, I don't think this book in any way can build someone up, learn something new, or appreciate Christianity.

I will mention though that I love this type of art style and the comic panels were done very well, which I could very well appreciate. But I think we can all agree, content matters much more.

I really enjoyed reading this book it was AMAZING. I flew through the entirety of it quite quickly and I really want the sequel to come out ASAP. The story initially starts off with the view point of two main characters, Laia and Elias. Laia, a Scholar has found her life thrown to the wolves upon the murder of her grandparents and the abduction of her brother. Desperate to find her brother, Laia sells herself into slavery as spying at a Military Academy and there she meets Elias, a mask and the son of the Commandment. They both find themselves trapped. As the Story progresses I begin to learn more about the Masks and how Blackcliff had changed the people that were attending the school. Overall, the book really moved my soul and it really spoke to my dog Miranda Sings would approve. Byee
