“Emily has lost control of her Amulet and is imprisoned in the Void, where she must find a way to escape the influence of the Voice. Meanwhile, Emily’s brother, Navin, travels to Lighthouse One, a space station where the Resistance is preparing to battle the approaching Shadow forces that would drain planet Alledia of all its resources. Emily and Navin must be smarter and stronger than ever to ensure Alledia’s survival.”
This is the eighth volume in the Amulet graphic novel series. The illustration remains amazing and the story makes some good progress too. I continue to be impressed with how well done this graphic novel series is.
In this volume Emily struggles to gain control of her Amulet and escape the Void. Meanwhile Trellis is trying to take his place as rightful king of the Elves. Navin goes to Lighthouse One and leaves on a mission to help protect the worlds against the Shadow forces.
The story is moving a bit slow and it jumps between a lot of people and places in this book. However, I am still really enjoying it. At some point I would like to sit down and read all these volumes back to back. Since these books seem to be coming out at the rate of a volume every other year it would be great to have a “story thus far” in the front of these books.
There was quite a bit of character development in this series, despite all the jumping around. It was great to see what a force Emily is becoming, and there were some interesting twists around her character in here.
Overall this is another great volume in this top notch fantasy graphic novel series. There is only one more volume in this series and I am eager to see how it wraps up!
