Strange the dreamer
by Laini Taylor
In the aftermath of a war between gods and men, a hero, a librarian, and a girl must battle the fantastical elements of a mysterious city stripped of its name.
Danny's Review: Laini Taylor's Daughter of Smoke and Bone trilogy was well-written, but suffered from poor pacing, side characters more interesting than the leads, and the occasional plot hole. In Strange the Dreamer her literary skill is on full display and coupled with a perfectly paced, dynamic narrative filled with dynamite characters - both the leads AND the supporting cast. Strange the Dreamer is more adventure than traditional fantasy, with a strong hidden-cities and lost-artifacts vibe. The themes of hate, mercy, and justice run strongly throughout this volume and its sequel. The best part? The sequel is also fantastic, and the story is complete at a duology - however, be aware that this will almost certainly tie into a crossover with Daughter of Smoke and Bone because it takes place in the same multiverse. Recommended for all fans of fantasy and adventure.

Descender : Tin Stars Book one, Tin stars
by Jeff Lemire
Ten years after planet-size robots known as Harvesters wreaked havok across the galaxy, TIM-21, a young android, awakens to find that robots are outlawed, but after discovering that his machine DNA may hold the secrets to the Harvesters, he quickly becomes the most wanted robot in the universe
Danny's Review: It's definitely more serious, but the small crew dynamic reminds me a lot of things like Firefly, Guardians of the Galaxy, or Farscape. Don't expect comedy out of this one. For all of that, there's a lot to love about the characters and story here, and it's worth checking out even if you're not typically a graphic novel fan, especially if you enjoy science fiction.

Monstress : Awakening Volume one, Awakening
by Marjorie M Liu
A survivor of a cataclysmic war between humans and the Arcanics, teenager Maika Halfwolf is both the hunter and hunted as she seeks answers about her mysterious past
Danny's Review: Monstress is so interesting. This is so much more than anthropomorphized animals versus humans. There are some complex interactions here, both in terms of characterization and plot, but they're all handled quite deftly. Add in the touch of Lovecraftian-inspired horror and this is definitely worth a read.
