Summary: Sheesh, I'm really disappointed in the book job!
Comment: Though the stories and yes, the art itself still had its flare, I just don't like the cheap-looking, slapped together collection with all its rather shoddy-looking b&w reprints. I have seen the stuff in full color in the comic book format and they're not all that bad. But I had felt a little cheated once I first opened this little book after waiting several years for the latest stories to be collected together in a volume. Maybe the producers were growing quite worried that all those diehard Elfquest fans out there might stampede or they simply didn't have as much money to print the stuff as they used to. Hey, I could wait a few more years if this means a nice full-color job in a nice format as The Elfquest Duo had originally done back in the 1980s and the early 1990s. But unfortunately, it also seems like The World of Two Moons had been so freely placed into the hands of the other writers and artists. Mmm...maybe you should really retire the Elfquest altogether, Wendy and Richard Pini - and we will truly understand. But we will still remember your great work in the past.

Summary: Worth reading but not the best in the series
Comment: At first I was greatly disappointed by the artwork and plot of this book, but it got much better toward the end. I'm not sorry I bought it, and I'm eager to read the continuation of the tale in the next volume. There's some interesting and poignant character development going on here with Skywise, and the cliffhanger ending leaves me with a strong sense of mystery and suspense. Anyone reading "Shards," "Ascent," and "Reunion" should read this one to see what's happening with the rest of the tribe while some of the elves are busy with Winnowill.

Summary: The artwork is sadly not up-to-par with Wendy's talent.
Comment: Catching up with my old friends was delightful, however, the artwork in this book was sadly lacking. Facial features were so unlike the original Pini characters at times that the only way they were recognizable was by their leathers. However, being completely wrapped up in the saga, I did enjoy reading about the trials and challenges new Chieftess Ember faced as she was forced to grow up quickly and lead the divided Wolfriders to a new, human-free holt. I would encourage new readers to read the early books first not only to understand WHAT is going on, but also to enjoy Elfquest from the author's own brush, as it was intended to be.
