This is probably the favorite graphic novel of my students. It's visually stunning with characters to which just about every kid can relate even if some of them fall a little flat at times. That mom is ... extremely trusting. Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay more trusting than I would be of bunny robots and anyone who lives in a Cloud City.

The full page spreads in this volume outdo the other five. They are just gorgeous. Chronos, man. Chronos is awesome. I'm not a huge fan of portal fantasy, but this series is really delightful and one I would recommend to get young readers into the genre or as a fun fantasy for any comic fans. The main issue is it took so very long for vol. 6 to be released and who knows when we'll have vol. 7. Write, Kazu, write like the wind.
