Ancient artifacts are being collected by cultists planning to cause a natural disaster of world-ending scale! Lara must call on former rival Carter Bells expertise to stop them, and together theyll face danger, action, and adventure like never before!
Lara Croft and the Frozen Omen #2 continues the entertaining ride by making the enemy more intriguing while delivering intense action and an increasingly interesting story line. Everything about the artifacts isn't explained in this issue but enough is given to show why others would at least seek to possess it. This series is off to a great start and I'm looking forward to seeing more answers about everything going on. Read Full Review
At the end of the second book I find myself uncertain about what's going on. It touches upon elements from the first, but the first made little enough impact with the story at hand that there doesn't feel like there's anything here to invest in either. And for an adventure book it really needs to have a sense of meaning to it so that it's more than a series of set pieces. The exposition itself even feels disconnected in a way as I'm still not sure what exactly is going on here beyond mystical ivory that makes people kill. It's certainly not demanding that new installments be read though. I'll be curious to see if it can tie things together by the end of it and whether it makes more sense as a full work rather than as single installments. Read Full Review
