In his search for the kidnapped faerie Violet Belle and a powerful assassin, interdimensional detective Boone Dias runs afoul of the Seven Lucky Gods-but he finds he must rely on the sinister deities to catch his quarry.
Every issue of Ether is full of creativity that a dozen writers could mine for ages and explore in some way in other books. That's both its boon and its flaw because it'll never be mined, just teased. But it tantalizes the mind so much. Kindt keeps the journey moving here as Boone Dias does his best in his own odd way and it's fun to see Glum just trudging alongside him doing his best as well to keep up or save him. I like the places we ended up this time around and those that we meet as it expands this world and our core cast in who they are and what they're like. Very good stuff, once more. Read Full Review
