  Red Roots #3 succeeds by shifting its focus toward immediate conflict rather than lingering questions. The mystery at the heart of the series remains compelling, but the story benefits from placing its protagonists in situations that demand action and decision-making. The mercenary's willingness to dive into battle and the teacher's efforts to help the wounded create a satisfying split narrative, allowing both characters to contribute in meaningful ways. De Felici continues to prove himself an exceptional visual storyteller, bringing scale, chaos, and wonder to every page. While the lack of answers may test some readers' patience, the strength of the worldbuilding and artwork makes the journey worthwhile for now. Read Full Review
