Unlike the predecessor, this second part of The Curse Of The Chosen feels like a sprint to the finish line. While the set pieces are great and the artwork ever stunning, it felt like it could use more breathing room. Some great character moments between Arthur, the lawyer and I did enjoy the wordy way in which it concluded

A wonderfully illustrated graphic novel with an interesting storyline. 
  
A thrilling conclusion to the game to choose the next chief. Many have died by Niope's cunningness, some are weak but still fighting for their lives. With life and death magic both so powerful, will one claim the throne or will Niope steal it. 
  
The author and illustrator, Alexis Deacon, based the idea of the game on the choosing of the Pope. Pairing this with a supernatural game, life, death, love, family, friends, right, and wrong all come into play as the chosen 50 battle for their lives and the coveted spot as the next leader.
