vixenreader's review against another edition

adventurous dark emotional mysterious sad tense fast-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? It's complicated
• Loveable characters? It's complicated
• Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

4.0

The last comedic chapter proves to cause whiplash, but this volume has a thrilling opening and an intense conclusion. It is unreal how Sebastian can manage to be the Butler G.O.A.T. for so long.

Content Warnings

Graphic: Child abuse, Child death, Death, Gore, Gun violence, Violence, Blood, and Injury/Injury detail

Moderate: Grief, Fire/Fire injury, and Classism

Minor: Cursing, Incest, Sexism, Lesbophobia, and Gaslighting

Be aware that this volume contains childhood poverty, deformity, murderous main characters, weird homoerotic tension between an adult and a minor, odd lesbian non-consensual groping, harvesting human limbs, and property damage.

This volume is particularly dark. I would pay attention to content warnings for this one if you suspect you may be sensitive to the storyline.
