I received this book through Netgalley in exchange for an honest review
How can it end there!!!! UGH CLIFFHANGER!
This story follows Maud (18 years old) who, inspired by a bandit known as The Fox, becomes a vigilante known as Scarlet Rose. Seeing and slashing the face of the villain who kills her father, she declares revenge and lucks out when she learns her grandfather is a count in Paris, where she hopes not only to find her father's killer, but also meet The Fox. She runs into a few hiccups along the way as we also learn more about her father's earlier travels and the reason for his murder.
I truly enjoyed the story. As all graphic novels go, it was way too fast. Not just the page length (give me more!!), but also the scene changes. Then again, I am more used to manga which is laid out like a novel. Perhaps, comics just go this fast!
The art style was a little rough for me, but I thought it added character and warmth to the...well, characters. ^_^ I was really getting into the characters and enjoying the story.
I hope to read more of this in the future!!
