Protected by a hired killer, Maia voyages to another realm—the cursed shores of Dahomey, where an ancient Blight has destroyed all the inhabitants.

Review:

This is kind of a difficult review to write. 

The illustrations were so beautiful, but I had a hard time reading it. The font is really small, and there was no way to make it larger or to at least zoom in on the page so I could read it better. 

A lot of the story was pretty generic, and the way the story flowed from panel to panel felt a little choppy. It could be that I read it on my tablet that I had a really hard time getting into the story.

If I read the rest, I'd rather start over reading it in a physical book, and go from there.

Sorry for such a short review, but I just don't have that much to say about it.
