review:
'Gloria Victis #1: The Sons of Apollo' by Juanra Fernandez with art by Mateo Guerrero is a graphic novel set in Ancient Rome.

The story begins with a thrilling chariot race that ends in the death of a racer. The story then follows the racer's son, who is now a slave, but has a way with horses. When he saves a life, he is offered his freedom, but freedom comes at a cost for this young man.

This was a good foundational story, but at 58 pages, the story is just getting started when the volume ends. The art is pretty good. I liked the afterword showing the historical notes behind the story.

I received a review copy of this graphic novel from Europe Comics and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this graphic novel.
