review:

'Stones of Power' is part of the Gen Manga series. It's a weird story, but I've seen Miyazaki movies, so I can handle bizarre stories from Japan. Or so I thought.



So, there's a guy who likes exotic fish. He sees a cute girl in the fish store and decides to find out more. She works in a store called a cafe, but it's a cafe that doesn't actually serve any food. It specializes in strange jewelry made of rocks. And the store has a fish tank, so before long he is working at the store and helping with the fish. Then he starts having weird dreams that seem to have something to do with the weird rocks. It all culminates in a dreamlike climax and left me kind of scratching my head.



It's not hard to follow, it's just kind of strange. When it was all over, I didn't dislike it, I'm just not sure who I would recommend it to. I've liked most of the Gen Manga series, but I didn't really care for this one.



I received a review copy of this graphic novel from Diamond Book Distributors, Gen Manga Entertainment and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this graphic novel.
