I think it might be a bit too difficult to find this comic, especially for some of us with very small stores"I don't believe my local comic store even had the chance to get a single issue of this. In any case, LEGENDS OF THE GEOMANCER tells a pretty interesting story of the first Geomancer, Anni. Read Full Review

Legends of the Geomancer #2 provides more of the brutal visuals of the first issue. Few artists are as perfect of a match for a story as Ryp is for this, as his thick lines and heavily detailed spreads encapsulate the world's raw and primitive nature. Read Full Review

Book of Death: Legends of the Geomancer #2 is an exciting adventure beginning with a thrilling fight sequence that ends up taking Anni and the rest of her followers on a journey to discover why the Earth is upset at humanity.
