review 1: This volume is the next story arc, The Cycle of Earth, for our ronin, Okko, and his gang of adventurers. It takes place over a harsh winter of Panjan. The artwork is beautiful once again, just like the first volume. I loved the rough-around-the-edges Skyrim feel this story presents. Okko and his companions travel through great heights past temples, ruins, and abandoned mines to track down the clues that will enlighten them on the path to their quest. In this story, the gang is investigating a secret sect of monks who bear the sign of the raven. There is mystery, sorcery, adventure, and a looming peril. I loved the pacing of the plot and it was easy to follow along with. Noshin, the monk, is absolutely hilarious. So far, this is a really unique series and I can't wait to re... moread the next volume.
review 2: Maybe its something lost in the French to English translation but I just didn't get into this story (even though there are new and more interesting characters). And why was everyone so down on the Rat from the beginning? The team started to remind me of Inuyasha in this book, and maybe if its been called "Noburo" instead of "Okko" I'd have been more interested. Even the conflict between the characters was less heated than it should've been. Bottom line: I just didn't care for whatever reason. Now the question is whether or not I'l read the third volume. I think I read this one after the first because I hoped we'd get to see more character development, but if Hub doesn't answer some of my remaining questions in The Cycle of Air I will not be pleased... less
