Taster’s Choice (Chew Volume #1) REVIEW

Taster’s Choice by John Layman and Rob Guillory

Published December 8th 2009

Genre: Graphic Novel

Pages: 128

Source: Borrowed it

Tony Chu is a detective with a secret. A weird secret. Tony Chu is Cibopathic, which means he gets psychic impressions from whatever he eats. It also means he’s a hell of a detective, as long as he doesn’t mind nibbling on the corpse of a murder victim to figure out whodunit, and why. He’s been brought on by the Special Crimes Division of the FDA, the most powerful law enforcement agency on the planet, to investigate their strangest, sickest, and most bizarre cases.

This graphic novel is about Tony Chu, a detective that can see the life of whatever he eats. He works for the F. D. A. with his partner Mason Savoy that has the same ability.

The art of this book was beautiful. It was colorful and definitely different from what I’m used to.

The characters were great. I loved Savoy and it was interesting to see the different ways the illustrator drew him throughout the book.

The plot was captivating and I wasn’t able to put the book down.

I recommend this graphic novel to mystery lovers and to anyone that feels curious about Tony’s ability.

Rating: 4,5 stars
