** spoiler alert ** Saga is so strange, so beautifully strange. I absolutely love it. I read this first volume straight through and I spent most of the time laughing at the sheer weirdness of the characters and the situations they found themselves in.







The strength of the story relies on the sheer energy of the action; it is non-stop and utterly relentless as our two protagonists fight to save their daughter in a world at war. The dialogue is oozing with past mysteries and secrets that are crying to be revealed. I feel like we jump straight into this story, into this universe, that is already firmly established and has been in existence for a long, long time. And for me this is extremely effective. I want more of it, lots more.

The thing that really struck me, and perhaps left me a little bewildered, was the relationship between The Will and The Stalk. I mean, how would that even work? On a physical level, she’s half spider; yet they clearly have an intimate past. The mind boggles.



The art is also very cool, the colours are superb. At the moment I feel like I’ve just had a glimpse at this world, and I hope that when I do look again it carries the same level of strange excellence.
