Mapmakers and the Lost Magic: by Cameron Chittock, Cameron Chittock, Amanda Castillo

3.0

This wasn’t as good as I was anticipating. The world was interesting, but as a reader I felt like I had no grasp of it. We don’t have any background information the townspeople or why the Night Coats have taken over. I’m guessing that it’ll be covered in later volumes, but for a fantasy based graphic novel I feel like that’s something that should have been covered early on. The artwork was great and I think the tying together and mapmaking, magic, and environmentalism is amazing, but this needed a lot more substance/development. I’m not sure if I’ll be continuing with the series just yet.
