I am not usually a suspense/horror fan, but I love Criminal Minds. So when I read the synopsis for this while looking for new books to review for you lovelies, I knew I needed to read this. I was so, so, so excited about starting this graphic novel... and Joshua Hale Fialkov did not disappoint.
It starts out kind of jumbled in the beginning to get you used to Brian's jumbled mental state. Once it really gets going, however, and Brian finds his father's trophies, his mental state begins to unravel. His ability to tell the difference between what's real and what's happening in his head comes completely undone when he meets a cop looking for a missing girl.
If I had to use a series of one words adjectives to explain this book it would be: dark, suspenseful, mind-bending, and creepy. Fialkov excelled at making me want to root for Brian Cohn. As the story unfolded and things got more complicated, I wanted to reach into the book and save Brian but I was also afraid of him.
Brian is broken and confused. Sinister forces are at work and you aren't sure when Brian got to be so scary. I cannot wait to get my hands on the rest of the series. My stomach was tense and knotted while I read and I found myself holding my breath as I turned the page. When I reached the end, I needed more.
I'll be picking up the print version with all five parts as soon as possible because I need to know what happens.
