Faith: Dreamside by Jody HouserMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
Disclaimer: I received a free ecopy via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
Now this is the type of story that I want to read about Faith. It is bright and fun and zany. So, it starts off with Faith keeping a low profile because she is wanted for murder. When Animalia makes an appearance and asks Faith for help with some ghosts, things take off. There are some great female characters in this book between Faith, Animalia, and Dr. Mirage. I will always take more opportunities to see Dr. Mirage make an appearance in a Valiant title.
I particularly like how the personalities between the three ladies play off each other. Each brings a unique perspective to this world they live in. The journey into the Deadside is great too. The realm the characters travel too is so different from what has been shown before. It is bright and silly (but don't let that stop you from reading this book). I also like the references to not only events in previous Faith books but the stories of Animalia and Dr. Mirage too. The only shortcoming of this book that I can think of is that it doesn't do a great job of introducing the characters. So someone who hasn't read other Valiant books might be a little confused at first.
