Review #22871 - Dated: 17th of September, 2023
Author: mizim |
I like a good graphic novel, and having some spare time and a new graphic novel instore, I decided to read Project Nought. The premise is that Ren, finds himself removed from 1996 and plopped into 2122, where he is expected to give firsthand knowledge to students learning history from those living it. Things begin to get complicated as Ren develops feelings for his partner, all the while knowing that his memory will be erased at the end of the trip and deposited back in his own time. Don't worry if you're not into romances as while there are feelings developing (and things are a lot less 'straight' in the future), there is a conspiracy to uncover and solve.
There's a good mix of romance, humour, mystery and danger going on here, a decent sci-fi read and I like that it is local in its setting (New Zealand and Australia) as we don't have enough graphic novels set here in good ol' NZ. The ending is a bit of a plot hole when it comes to its sci-fi element, so if you're very nitpicky when it comes to this, give the book a skip, but if you're not too fussed then you will still enjoy it. The illustrations in this are very well done, nice, crisps and neat. I feel like this will be a good graphic novel for teens wanting a well written story with a range of personalities and a decent plot twist at the end.
