This incredibly creative graphic novel has an immediate hook that made me want to keep reading on. Two soldiers on opposite ends of a war have a baby and all they want is to do is escape the universe consumed by this war created by their people. The story is told in part as an autobiography of the baby who grows up to be a deep thinking, introspective woman. I usually don't like universe spanning sci fi, but the imaginative world created in this story is so immediately compelling. Along with its beautiful artwork and likable and complex characters, this is a graphic novel worth checking out.
