From the Hugo Award-winning duo of Brian K. Vaughan (The Private Eye, Y: The Last Man) and Fiona Staples (North 40, Red Sonja), Saga is the sweeping tale of one young family fighting to find their place in the universe. Searching for their literary hero, new parents Marko and Alana travel to a cosmic lighthouse on the planet Quietus, while the couple’s multiple pursuers finally close in on their targets.

Can I just say that I really love this series? I don’t even know what I’m going to do with myself once I’m caught up. I think that I pretty much loved everything about this book, but my favorite scene was between Sophie and Lying Cat. I just about cried when I got to that part.

In addition to that, I felt like this book got a little deeper than the last two, not only touching on Sophie’s past but also on homophobia and grief. There’s a whole section on the importance of reading to children (and on books in general), which I loved. There’s also a little bit about following your dreams, which made me smile so much. I love how supportive Marko is of Alana.

It’s a good thing that I went to the library today and got the next four volumes because I need to know what happens next.
