This shot to my favorite graphic novels list the second I finished this book! The sci-fi elements were immersive & weird, the art work was absolutely breathtaking, and most importantly, it dives really well into deep topics including, but not limited to: the loss of self (intertwined heavily with loss of a culture plus intergenerational trauma) in a colonialist landscape, as well as the dichotomy of being complicit in colonialism in order to survive imperialist power structures.
I highly recommend this book for any readers looking for a new subversive sci-fi graphic novel, and I greatly look forward to picking up the sequel to "Prism Stalker."
