A surreal blend of the fantastical and the normal.
This book took a new approach to the New Gods, and it just didn't connect with me at all. I get what they were trying to do, but the war never felt real, and given the world-shattering conflict and death that surrounds the main characters, their blase attitude outside of that conflict, dealing with diapers and stage performances, etc., never rings true. Maybe I needed to be a bigger New Gods fan to vibe with this title.
