review:
'TAMBA, Child Soldier' by Marion Achard and Yann Degruel is the story of a young child soldier and what happens to him.

The book opens with a hearing. On the stand is Tamba Cisso who is being asked questions about his life as a child soldier. When he was 8, his village was overthrown and he was kidnapped. He learned to fight and trick opponents. He made friends in the group, and decides to escape. He makes it to a refugee camp, but his troubles are far from over.

This is a composite story of things happening in the world. The story has some pretty terrible things in it, but the main character is trying to find some redemption. The art is a bit weak at times, but it's a decent story. The graphic novel ends with some essays about child soldiers.

I received a review copy of this graphic novel from NBM Publishing, Papercutz, and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this graphic novel.
