Monstress, Vol. 2: The Blood

The Art in this volume is even more gorgeous and violent at the same time. The plot is also equally confusing even though we did get some answers and lots more questions.

Maika has some character development in this one as her journey to find her mother's truth leads her to learn so much more.

The little snippets in between gave much needed world building information. The journey through the sea was also much more interesting.

Kippa is as usual the star for me. She is loyal, compassionate and fierce even when Maika is being indifferent to her. I would love to read more just to know what happens to Kippa next.
