Gr 4-8–Lylian delivers a cinematic new adventure that will enthrall fans of Marvel and Godzilla. Haunted by the memory of the car accident that killed her parents, Erin has found solace through her gardening and connection with nature. One day, while Erin is running away from bullies in a nearby forest, she discovers Yrso: a 50-foot plant giant who saves her from the bullies. Erin realizes that she has a connection to Yrso, and that he is the reason she has always had a super-green thumb. This first installment in a new epic adventure series sets the stage with a high-interest plot that transitions between what is happening with Erin and Yrso, and what is happening on a larger global scale as scientists uncover the existence of other giants in the world. Readers will enjoy the colorful artwork and character-driven stories, though they may recognize some familiar tropes from other comic book series. This will also appeal to readers looking for a short, fast-paced story.
VERDICT A highly entertaining first installment to a new series that will appeal to fans of Guardians of the Galaxy, this is a must-buy for graphic novel collections.
