Rating: 2/5
Disclaimer: I received a free ecopy via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
Book two picks up shortly after where the first one left off. It delves more into the mythology of the Dhizi and Angel's struggle with his powers. There are some solid ideas in this book, but they never came together in a way that satisfied me. I like the mystical animal powers and the anime-esque art. The coloring is well done too.
The story is haphazard. There are times where it is following a plotline and a new one gets shoehorned in when the first one is done. It didn't have a logical progression aside from jumping ahead in time. And I didn't care much for the protagonist. Some of the issues he had to deal with, like problems with his girlfriend, should have made him relatable. However, there wasn't enough depth to the characters. It's as if they were secondary to the mythology behind the story.
