Review

The graphic novel is about a group of Nnewts that are attacked by a group of reptiles called Lizzark (and yes, the Nnwets are very much like newts and the Lizzarks are like lizards). One of the Nnewts, Herk, escapes the attack because he is thought to be weak. But as it turns out, he might be the strongest Nnewt of all. There is a lot of action in this graphic novel plus some really cool drawings. Much of the book focuses on fight scenes and the Lizzarks attacking the Nnewts or just attacking Herk. For readers wanting to find out more about Herk, this is volume 1 with more to follow.

Overall Book Score: very good
