Some of the most beautiful art I've ever seen

An immersive, fascinating experience of a comic - Linnea Sterte's art is absolutely beautiful, from the loose, strong lines to the atmospheric colouring, but what I truly think is her biggest strength is storytelling. So much goes unsaid, as the comic is mostly wordless, but there's just this constant air of story and things happening between the lines and panels that's just so cool. And speaking of panels, the panel to panel transitions in this are amazing and carry so much of the story in such a beautiful way.
It's comics at its' best and I can't wait to read more of her work.

This book is amazing. The art is perfect to immerse yourself in this strange world. It's mostly a visual story with very few words, but I don't think it would benefit from adding any more. I'm really looking forward to seeing more of Linnea Sterte's art.

Possibly the most beautiful book I’ve ever read. Every cell is a masterpiece. Sterte’s art is somehow both familiar and uniquely dynamic. I’m so glad I received this gift!

This book has NO RIGHT to be this gorgeous!!!! Like damn, just the physical copy of the book, with it’s gold embossed covers and full color pages, made it too beautiful to handle. And on top of that, the art style! Ah, I borrowed this from a friend but my bookshelf will NOT be complete without me getting a copy of this!!
