review 1: 3.5 I think.There's something about this series so far that's stopping me from really enjoying it, and I don't know what that is. I like it well enough, but I don't get that urge to spur me on to read the next one. I think the story barrels along a tad too fast at times, and there's so many things happening, that it can be a little too much. However, I really do like the concept of the story, and there's absolutely no way to guess what is going to happen, so I imagine I will pick up the others in the series in a little while.
review 2: There are things that don't quite work for me here. One is the Watchmen-style interspersed media coverage, including social media discussions and the like. I just think they're full of rather obvious, banal points. I see why they... more're there but I can think of better ways they could have been handled. On the other hand there are some cool things happening here. I love how Tom totally deconstructs the legend of Rolan - only to have the Roland of legend appear, horn and all, at a pivotal moment in the story. I also found the idea of a story that has been adapted in a way that twists its original intention somehow suffering, going mad as a consequence fascinating. In short, veers between the workmanlike and inspired. I'll definitely give it at least one more TPB before deciding which, but it'll likely be some mix of the two, which still leaves this story way ahead of things like Fables. less
