Wow this graphic novel really captivated me! I can’t wait to read more! The graphic novel „The Hunger and the Dusk“ by G.Willow Wilson and Chris Wildgoose is set in a dying world that is inhabited by humans and orcs that have been at war with each other for centuries. Faced with a new mutual enemy they form a fragile alliance. The story is told from the orc and human perspective which I really liked! The insight into the orc culture was phenomenal. I immediately started to care for both sides due to the exceptional character work done in this. The story was engaging and fast paced while still taking its time to explore the characters‘ relationships and backstories. The world felt organic and interesting which was enhanced by the beautiful artwork by Chris Wildgoose. There even was a solid dash of romance in this that really hit for me! I can wholeheartedly recommend this series and I’m eager to read what happens next! A big thanks to NetGalley and the publisher IDW Publishing for giving me the opportunity to read an advance copy in exchange for an honest review.
