Not what I expected...

If I'm disappointed is my own fault for not informing myself before buying the book! I thought this book was going to be about one character "the one on the cover" traveling around the world, but it isn't; more over because of the beautiful cover I was expecting it to be a mixture between Howl's Moving Castle and Secrets of Kells or something similar. Flight is a collection of short stories not related one to another, you may find more than one chapter of some stories within on volume. There are lots of different drawing styles and all of then are good, plus the stories are awesome my favorite was "The Bowl". If you wanna check out some previews you can go to this link http://www.flightcomics.com/preview.htm I'm not going to take stars away because the book was excellent and because I should had looked up reviews for the book before buying it.
