The elements of this story certainly aren't fresh nor is the art especially striking. ![]() The rest of the book shows Claire and her naïve tagalong going through a series of confrontations with Yomas, in the worst of which Claire is summoned to kill her best friend, who feels herself losing control over her Yoma side.
