Cutting Edge by Francesco Dimitri

adventurous mysterious medium-paced

3.75

This book was going so well, despite some hefty time jumps where interesting things happened but never expounded on, but then the final issue happens. The pacing of this story is slow and steady, building up a mythology and world bit by bit so that it makes sense in a world otherwise assumed to have no magic in it. Then the final issue introduces at least four really big, world-changing plot points that are crammed in too fast and too randomly to make much sense in the larger story at hand. The idea of the smartest/best people in the world are recruited to complete a series of miraculous tasks in order to eventually save the world is a really fun idea. I just wish this were a six or eight issue release at the very least for the idea to be fully realized.
