| Stunningly illustrated, I enjoyed the art more than the story, which felt overwrought. Might appeal more to teens. On one level, a reflection of the patriarchal culture's youth obsession, as well as the dangers of capitalism and the gulf between the ...more | |

| A gorgeous tale about a blocked creator in another world, locked out of his own creation because he makes so many starts but never finishes anything. A great reminder that perfection isn't the goal, and tinkering can go on so long that we never compl ...more | |

| An adventure story that focuses on colonialism, refugees, outcasts, and teamwork, this is focused on inclusivity, specifically for Arab-Americans, but also for all those who feel they don't fit into the capitalistic war machine structure here and in ...more | |
| "So while I embrace my weirdness, I often wonder why does anyone want to read about my regular life. I mean, I find it pretty boring. Sure, I find it a privilege to live in my own fantasy world and get to share all of that with the world, but the o..." Read more of this blog post » | |

| An excellent fantasy novel, with twists I didn't see coming, and enough menace, adventure, magic, romance, and friendship to make a perfect blend. My only complaints are negligible: it's set at the turn of the century, but folks don't speak the way t ...more | |

rated a book it was ok

|
| The plot was fairly silly. One of those that unfolds in such a way that there's no figuring it out, just following along for a series of anticlimactic reveals. The artwork and inking, however, is absolutely striking! Creepy, gory, atmospheric, and in ...more | |

“After Years
Today, from a distance, I saw you
walking away, and without a sound
the glittering face of a glacier
slid into the sea. An ancient oak
fell in the Cumberlands, holding only
a handful of leaves, and an old woman
scattering corn to her chickens looked up
for an instant. At the other side
of the galaxy, a star thirty-five times
the size of our own sun exploded
and vanished, leaving a small green spot
on the astronomer's retina
as he stood on the great open dome
of my heart with no one to tell.”
