He's tough. He's dumb. He's Tavin! And he's... Barrow's new apprentice? That's right. Barrow sees himself in the young brawler and takes him under his wing. Cue the training montage. Plus, Ray gets dumped, and a necromancer is there to pick him up. Bonus: Mercenaries attack! But... Who sent them?
If the structure has a loose feeling on first read, do not let Quests Aside #3 fool you. The story is deftly woven throughout the book and is balanced by some wonderful character development. The staff are a bunch of schmucks, and we cannot help but love them all. Read Full Review
Like the first two issues, there is a lot going on here and I do wish it would just take the time to slow down and breathe a little more. Let us enjoy the characters, understand their situations, and see their connections without bouncing to the next thing so quickly. Other than the two-page piece where we see Tavin's training, everything else feels like it's happening in the space of a single day or even evening as it plays out. I really like this cast and want to see more of it, especially with Gogou's artwork as it has a real charm with all of the cast. I'm definitely curious to see where it goes and what quirks it unearths next. Read Full Review
