Rating: 4/5
Fallout. That is what this volume is all about. The characters have to deal with their actions at the end of volume four in a big way. Everyone is out for themselves here as various gods try to bring order back to the pantheon.
This book starts to open things up for the reader. It delves a bit into Ananke's plots and how the gods are involved with it. I felt that there was a nice mix of perspective between the two factions that developed out of volume four. I certainly enjoyed some of the characters more, even if they are still creepy and weird.
The visuals are still great. McKelvie does a wonderful job illustrating everything, but Wilson's colors really make the book shine. They make the scenes pop. Of note, there is a magazine type issue to kick off this volume. I skipped it until the end though. It expands on the personality and goals of a few of the characters through fictional interviews. Nothing earth shattering, but it is a nice change of pace and an excellent way to fill out the universe.
