La historia se mantiene interesante. Las ilustraciones son magníficas. La trama es muy rica en detalles y matices.

Sam….. if you see this….. please leak volume 3 to me.
The second entry in Verse built upon the first, which I loved, in every way. The art was incredible, though this time that wasn’t a surprise as I know what to expect from her. What DID surprise me was the fact that I may have possibly definitely shed a couple tears at one of the most poignant scenes I’ve read in comics to date. If you’re reading this review in 2022, here is your chance to get in on something really really special. I can see this blowing up once enough people get their hands on it, and I really hope it does.
Until then I will be annoying my friends until they read it.
Seriously, go to your local indie, buy it or request it, and read it. I love this shit SO much.

More risk, more drama
A lot more dour drama, self-doubt, and romance compared to the first book. Still glad for the friendship between the leads and liked learning a bit more about the world and song/verse, but things are getting more dire and I'm hoping for some good news and less romance in the next one.

Fife's plans to become an expert swordsmith are interrupted when he meets Neitya, an extraordinary girl unlike any he's ever met before...primarily because of her horns and amnesia. Worryingly, she seems akin to the monstrous Vel who roams the countryside. but when Fife is attacked by the Vel, Neitya saves him by using a skill thought to be forever lost to everyone: Magic. Fife and Neitya decide to journey together, seeking the guidance they need to unravel the mystery of her origin.
I loved the two first books of Verse and I cannot wait to know what will happen next ! Everything in it is perfect, from the story, to the characters. I greatly enjoyed the mysterious atmosphere mixing magic and classic Fantasy universe. I loved how the story is unveiled, and how we learn slowly about each character.
