I'm still very much enjoying this series, and even better, so are my students. I love the artwork, especially the sweeping double page spreads. The monsters are terrifying, the story is moving along at a good paced, and I love the dynamic between Emily and the unfortunately named Trellis. It's great to see a hero/anti-hero dynamic without romantic tones involved.
The only thing really annoying me is the mom. I can't honestly see how she'd let her children run off into this after the trauma in her life. She's kind of a hindrance on the plot. I wish she'd either join the cast as an Action Mom or at least stop getting kidnapped.
So we have now filled in the backstories for all of the main characters, maybe.
Art is still fantastic, curious to see how the main story moves forward.
