In the film Serenity, outlaw Malcolm Reynolds and his crew revealed to the entire ’verse the crimes against humanity undertaken by the sinister Alliance government. In this official follow-up, circumstances force the crew to come out of hiding, and one of their own is captured, setting them on another mission of rescue and resistance . . .

Now this one was so much better than the rest. Really enjoyed the artwork and the story had a nice flow to it with plenty of action. It felt like the TV series / film I love.

I'm so glad to hear that!

I really liked that part, I haven't watched the film and/or the TV series, yet I truly enjoyed the story and the artwork. A pleasant experience!

Wasn't there an author change in this volume? (is it his the brother?)

I totally agree Lynn. I first read this last year (before the other parts of the series) and LOVED it! Great continuation picking up from where the movie left off.

Just got this one and I have to agree after just reading the first few pages. What a vast improvement over the earlier parts. Hopefully, the story will be better as well.

I finished it and I really like this one. It feels like something completely different than the other ones. I loved how the story was picked up and to me it also felt like an episode of the show. Same pacing and mixture of fun, action, relationships and space cowboys/girls. The illustrations were also much better even if some of the characters still didn't feel right (I'm having the hardest time distinguishing kaylee and river in here).
A very enjoyable read and now it does make sense that this was picked by so many people. I still feel that Saga is superior to these, but it simply lacks the fandom that serenity has.

I had that trouble too!

I'm currently in the middle of Volume Three and yes, totally superior.
