A new masterpiece of graphic novel fantasy!! In Squire, young Aiza is getting to fulfill her dream of beginning her military training to become a squire and serve her kingdom, she begins to realize that the dream she believes in does not align with the beliefs of the empire she's fighting for, and the truth is much darker than she ever knew. Not only is Squire epic in its scope-- both in richness of story-telling and realness of war and colonialism-- but it gets down to questions of celebrating your identity and trusting what you know is the right thing to do. Superb!! I'm so excited for this new epic, and it’s definitely one that stays with you.
