The Unwritten: vol. 4: Leviathan/ Mike Carey et al

The Unwritten volume 4: Leviathan; Mike Carey, Peter Gross, some other awesome people; graphic novel, 142 pages

Let it be known that I manually counted the pages because Horizon is down and some slacker did not enter the page count on WorldCat. So there.

But enough about that! This volume was maaaybe the best in the series, we're really getting in deep into the mythology Carey has woven, and it is rich and terrifying. The art is magnificent in this installment, there's a great switching-up of styles as our hero Tom Taylor traverses the strange, tenuous boundaries between intersecting realities. Our protagonists are not really any closer to understanding what they need to do or how to do it, but the full immense scope of the things at stake has, in a way, been revealed.

actually I'm really grumpy that this is the latest installment because I want MORE, and NOW. sigh. Waiting is awful.
