When Martin and Tawny's children disappeared, the couple barreled into the desert to track them down at any cost. Instead, they ran afoul of another group of rovers who claimed to be saving the world by traveling through a cave portal to the year 1492 to prevent the creation of America-an idea that defied belief until the grieving parents were lured into the cave and vanished in time and space. Now alone, Tawny must adapt to the wild marshlands of prehistoric Florida, circa 20,000 BC, and the breathtaking and bloodthirsty megafauna are the least of her problems when she's caught in a war between a community of native Paleo-Indians and an occupying Solutrean force. Tawny's odds of survival are in free fall, but she's a mother on a mission...and she's holding on to hope that the cave brought her here for a family reunion.

Thanks to IDW and NetGalley for the eARC. EARTHDIVERS VOL 2 is the second story arc for Stephen Graham Jones' speculative comic series. Following Tawny's journey to the ice age, I found this storyline a lot more enigmatic than the prior volume. Readers of SGJ likely know his prose is often as difficult as it is elegant, but I found the transition from volume 1 to 2 very confusing. I was initially unsure what was going on and it connected to earlier issues, despite having read volume one pretty recently. Overall I struggled to connect with Tawny and her plot line, and found this arc less compelling than the first. The art is beautiful and I think it's worth reading for fans of the series, but it felt like a step down to me.
