The graphics are good, but the text is predictable. I was disappointed that it was so 'obvious' and I knew exactly where the story would go as I turned each page.
It's pretty much preaching to the choir. ( )

I picked this up because the first few pages caught my attention. I liked the story and the artwork ... but I wasn't aware that this was a "thing." A movie, an album, a movement of sorts. And maybe that's where I got lost. It wasn't until the last quarter of the book that I started to feel like I was missing something. Something I never found.
Maybe it's because I'm not a Neil Young fan. But I am a huge tree-hugger, so you'd think I would have been able to pick up what they were puttin' down. Oh, well. Live and learn. ( )

Not a typical graphic novel in the super her sense. Which is probably why I liked it so much. An interesting story about interesting people and their weird and somewhat supernatural lives (at least some of them have supernatural lives). It ends without a clear resolution, which works quite well in the context of the story. I don't like to reveal too much about the books I read. But, I liked this one a lot. ( )

Great pictures, shame about the story & dialogue. ( )

The artwork is gorgeous, but the story remains just as dippy (and continues to not make a lick of sense) as its aural and cinematic counterparts. Go figure. ( )

Gr 9 Up-Meet Sun Green. She's the latest in the familial line of "Green Women"-environmentally conscious girls who are intent on saving the planet. The only problem is, all the other women in her family mysteriously disappeared when they reached her age. Fearful about what she may become and where she might end up, Sun seeks answers from her remaining extended family. When a mysterious stranger comes to town and threatens her brother and her new boyfriend, she may have to figure out a way to tap into her power and defeat him sooner rather than later. Set in 2003 during both the debate surrounding the Iraq conflict and the question of drilling for oil in Alaska, this tale manages to be both politically conscious and massively entertaining. The art is stunning. Sun is beautifully drawn and is just as radiant as her namesake. The unnamed mysterious stranger is depicted as gritty and sinister, just as a villain should be. This graphic novel is a great source for teenagers trying to understand the environment and how an individual can make a difference.
