## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very engaging
*by A***R on 12 July 2020*

Highlands meets the Losers. It is full of brilliant characterisation, beautiful artwork and an engaging story. I couldn't put it down.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great start and lovely printed version
*by S***R on 30 August 2020*

This is a lovely print. The cover is matte and it has extra drawings for all the alternative covers inside. I have read from Rucka Queen and Country and I loved it. This is similar but lighter and with the bit about the supernatural. I really like how the reader can also create their own theories.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Old soldiers
*by P***R on 13 June 2020*

A paperback containing the first five issues of the comic 'The Old Guard.' This is an action story with a touch of fantasy.It contains a lot of graphic violence. Some adult moments. Some strong language. So is strictly for mature readers.All five issues are divided up with chapter pages, so you can tell where one ends and the next begins.This is the story of a group of mercenaries. Led by a woman called Andy, they are absolutely the best at what they do. But they have a secret. They don't die. That's not, in this case, the same as being immortal. But to say more about that would be needing spoilers.When their secrets start to get out, they have to deal with the result...Greg Rucka is a good solid writer. And he does a good job here. There's solid characterisation. Good use of military history, although that never overwhelms. And he clearly knows his spy stuff. The art by Leandro Fernandez is very good. He's a reliable artist, with a style you quickly get used to. The colouring does a good job as well.There's a few themes running through, and it tackles all of them very well. It is a much a meditation on living, all through the eyes of Andy, as she does the bulk of the storytelling. There's some good food for thought here.It also is a cracking good action story with it. There are some excellent set pieces.All in all, a cracking good read. Great action, with enough originality to grab your attention and really hold it. The story of these five issues is self contained. But it does leave room for further tales with these characters.In some ways it does feel as if this was written with a movie deal in mind. And funnily enough, there is one on the way. So I am looking forward to that. And book two of this series, when that comes out.The volume ends with a gallery of covers from the various issues.
