This series is such a weird one for me. I adore the art and much of the idea of dragon hunters sailing the skies. The food element 5 course, the main reason I picked it up, and it doesn't disappoint either.
But the parallel to whaling isn't a small one, and that makes the whole situation far from a favorite. The previous volumes was heavy on it as a positive, but I am happy to see that volume 4 leans the other way with the introduction of a character who provides a perspective that sees the beauty in Dragons instead of their uses.
Even with the complaint, I am still enjoying the series enough to continue it, and the beauty of the linework is some of the best on my shelve

Look at Vanebelle on the cover! Damn.
This was such a good read, it was good to see another perspective on Dragons and again the art was top notch
