review:
'Half-Blood: The Ogre Gods Book Two' by Hubert Boulard with art by Bertrand Gatignol continues the grotesque world of brutish giants and the humans that serve them.
The half-blood of the title is Yori. Son of a noble and his mistress, Yori and his mom find themselves cast in the street and make their way the way most people with no job skills do. Yori has a plan though, and uses his body to find his way back in the castle to get his vengeance.
I like this world, but I wouldn't want to live in it. I like the story as well as the supporting text sections about various chancellors that served the giants and how they survived (or rather didn't). The art, like the first volume, paints the giants and their brutal ways in two-tone art.
I received a review copy of this graphic novel from Magnetic Press, Diamond Book Distributors, and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this graphic novel.
