Hurry along now, Spacemonauts! The rocket awaits!

Gunnerkrigg Court, Volume 1: OrientationGunnerkrigg Court, Volume 1: Orientation by Tom Siddell

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


I was happily surprised by this book. It was off-beat and quite humorous. I really enjoyed the mix of technology and mythology. I think a couple of the mythological characters needed more explanation, maybe needs a small glossary of some sort for those of us too lazy to google things really quickly whilst we're reading. (<-- like me.) I loved the chapter "Mainly Involves Robots" XD I really liked both Reynardine's character and Coyote's. How they were drawn, especially Coyote. I've always been fond of the Trickster's in mythological tales. The characters overall in this book are great, so interesting each in their own way. The plot is catchy. Definitely a must-read in my opinion! :D
