This is a collection of the 4 part comic book that Ellison did. I have to say that I was a little disappointed with it. It's not a bad story but I've come to expect so much more from Ellison that this was a let down for me. The story takes place in what seems like an Amish-like community and involves a love triangle. It doesn't take long to find out that it's actually a spaceship. I don't want to ruin the story for you so let's just say that that fact changes everything. And I'm not really sure if I like the ending of it. The art work suited the story well (it reminded me of the style used in Locke and Key). I'm giving it a 3 out of 5. It's good enough to borrow and read but I can't really say that you should go buy it (I did and I wished I hadn't).
