A young woman trying to have sex with her boyfriend is interrupted by otherworldly beings and ends up on a mystical quest.

The art in this one is impressive, and shows an impressive world. Unfortunately the writing is not of the same caliber: the story is confusing as hell and there are a lot of infodumps about the world's dense cosmology.

I like that art enough that I'll pick up the next volume in hope that the writing improves.

Three and a half stars.

The art in this is absolutely striking, eye-popping and different. The story... it feels like book 1 just finishes the prologue, so I don't know how to say. I found Allison a bit of a weak character at the start -- most of the book is her being confused and distressed, even before the demons all started happening -- but the end shows that this was a deliberate place to start her and that it will change. I'll happily read on, but so much of this was just setting the stage that I don't have too much to say about it beyond that it intrigued me.
