Arrived in bad condition
Luckily I’m not too particular about condition,but for those who care about this stuff,this came in terrible shape. You can see clearly from the photos that this would be returned by a lot of people. The art and story I’m sure are awesome,but 鶹.ca needs to package their stuff a bit better. It’s unacceptable.

    I haven't read much by Ram V in the past, but I gave this one a try. It is an excellent read steeped in Indian culture. The characters are fascinating and well developed. The writing is ponderous and well paced. The arch is gorgeous and dreamlike. Also, the hard cover edition looks amazing on my bookshelf.

    5.0 out of 5 stars A fairy tale fever-dream. Blew my mind.
    Reviewed in Australia on August 5, 2022
    Verified Purchase
    This gorgeous graphic novel just blew me away. The characters, the journeys, the feels—and the illustrations, wow. All of it together was just *chef’s kiss*. I’ll admit, I teared up at the end.

    With the birth of the prophesied inventor of immortality, Death’s department is downsized and Death finds herself out of a job. Sent to live among mortals, she assumes the identity of Laila Starr in Mumbai and sets out to stop the prophesied inventor of immortality, a babe named Darius, and get her job back.

    Her plan lasts for all of 5 minutes, where she runs in front of a truck and dies ||after trying (and failing) to kill Darius in his crib. Turns out killing in person is a lot harder than from the lofty realm of the gods’ silver tower||.

    Fortunately, Death/Laila Starr still has friends in high places, namely Pranah, the god of life, who revives her. And keeps reviving her as she finds her mortal life ending in various tragic circumstances—often when she crosses paths with Darius.

    The most rewarding aspect of this story is watching Laila’s character evolve. As a god, she reaped from upon high in the millions without a second thought. On Earth, Laila’s experience of death is no longer from afar—it’s up close and personal—and it is a delight to watch her character engage with humanity and experience the profoundness that is life up close.

    The Many Deaths Of Laila Starr reads like a fairy tale fever-dream. It’s a heady mix of ghosts, talking crows, sentient cigarettes, self-aware temples, and gods walking among humanity. And as its characters navigate the ups and downs of life, the human experience, and the inevitability of death, readers are encouraged to ask themselves what it means to be truly alive.

    Ótima hq. A primeira vez que tentei comprar ficou demorando pra enviar e foi cancelado em algum momento.
    Na segunda vez veio bem antes do esperado.
    É uma história linda que achei cativante. Li ela numa viagem de ônibus. O único defeito é que acaba.

    La historia me ha cauitivado. Ha sido un recorrido delicado que poco a poco te dirige hacia un final emotivo y sincero. La forma en que la historia se enfrenta a este gran dilema me ha encantado, sin utilizar recursos superfluos ni elementos fuera de sitio. Igualmente el grafismo y los colores son capaces de transmitir perfectamente el ambiente, los sentimientos y el movimiento de las escenas incluso en las más delicadas. Sin duda pasará a mi biblioteca de grandes hallazgos.
