Sci-Fi, not zombies or vampires or even super hot bikini clad girls! Not that I dislike any of those, but I was just super excited to read something different from everything else I&#8217;ve been seeing lately.<\/p>\n<p><u>The Good<\/u>:<br \/>\nThe story line. This first book in the trilogy covers quite a bit of back story and once I started reading it, I honestly found it hard to put down. Learning what really happened to the dinosaurs and how humans came to exist from this writer&#8217;s point of view caught my attention in the first part and kept me going right up until Jenny&#8230;well, I&#8217;m not going to spoil it for you.<\/p>\n<p><u>The Bad<\/u>\u00a0:<br \/>\nOk, I don&#8217;t know if this is bad or just different, but the publisher on this book chose to quite literally take the first four issues and put them into a new cover. I know what you&#8217;re thinking. This is a trade. Trades do that. You&#8217;re right, except the interior covers don&#8217;t usually still have their bar codes and individual issue pricing on them. I&#8217;ll be honest and say it seemed a bit lazy to me. It wouldn&#8217;t have taken much effort to remove those. My only other complaint is that the front cover of the trade is exactly the same as issue 1&#8217;s cover which you immediately notice because opening the front cover, you&#8217;re faced with issue 1&#8217;s cover. I would have liked to have seen an original cover done for the trade.<\/p>\n<p><u>The Summary<\/u>\u00a0:<br \/>\nIf you&#8217;re into Sci-Fi and the age old story of good vs evil, an evil bad guy against a band of misfits or a brand new story of creation, this book is one you&#8217;re going to want to add to your collection. It&#8217;s one that when I first picked it up, I wasn&#8217;t sure and then I started turning pages and it just pulled me in. From the story to the art, there wasn&#8217;t anything to disrupt the flow and before I knew it, I had found the end and possibly whimpered out loud that I don&#8217;t have volumes 2 or 3 so I can find out what happens next. Maybe if I&#8217;m a very lucky girl, I&#8217;ll have a chance to review those for you as well.
