From Booklist Gr. 9-12. This first installment in The Path graphic-novel series explores the crisis of faith confronting Obo-san， a monk disillusioned by the gods' murder of his brother， and also General Ryuchi， Obo-san's boyhood friend， who serves the mad emperor of Nayado. After his brother's death， Obo-san swears revenge against the gods. His vow and his newfound cynicism lead him to question the decisions of the emperor， putting him at odds with Ryuchi. The story， with a fair amount of classic comic-book violence， seems like a Clint Eastwood western--moody， epic， and iconoclastic--with characters， heroes and villains alike， mostly victims of circumstance and their code of honor. The action is slow to start and the plot is very intricate， but Sears' art pulls readers through the rough spots， with its stark black backgrounds and details getting a lift from rich， yet subdued， colors. An appended interview with Sears is a great bonus for YAs curious about how comics are created or interested in working in the business. Tina ColemanCopyright © American Library Association.
