But while Tom is there searching Unwritten: Orpheus in the Underworlds Volume 8 Lizzie, Rick is partnering up with the dyslexic Australian detective to figure out why certain people's stories are maybe coming to life. He also pairs up with a familiar ghost who turns out to be a bit more solid than he Unwritten: Orpheus in the Underworlds Volume 8 thought. Bow chica wow wow The Underworld stuff was my favorite simply because of all the twists and turns the story took, but the biggest twist happened at the end and left me and I'm assuming everyone else speechless! I've not been able to get many volumes of this title, but it looks like there's a crossover in the works View all 15 comments.

I knew this was the 8th volume in the series and it was about Orpheus. I wanted to check it out. This was way more than I thought I was getting. I want to go back to the first one and start from the beginning. This was really good. What I can gather, this man is able to go into a world where he makes stories real. This land is not a easy land. The opening of the story is a Jane Austin heroine selling her body for food. The stories are real here and they have teeth and knives and all kinds of tort I knew this was the 8th volume in the series and it was about Orpheus. The stories are Unwritten: Orpheus in the Underworlds Volume 8 here and they have teeth and knives and all kinds of torture devices. It was not strictly an Orpheus telling, but it followed the outline. Hades had been replaced by a rabbit. It is like a nightmare that is constantly meshing all these stories together. I actually enjoyed this. There is a lot here. Mar 29, Sean Gibson rated it really liked it. Of course, then there's the last page I officially have no idea where this is headed, but I'm looking forward to finding out. Onto volume View 2 comments. Hells yes! Lemme see here Flying horses. Zombie vs. A wide screen HD Genie lamp. And a whole shit ton more that I can't really talk about unless I throw in some spoiler tags. I'm way to lazy for that so I usually just avoid most spoilers in my reviews. This volume was nuts! Basically, we got two stories in one here. The main story has Tommy looking for the doorway to hell so he can go and find Lizzie! Tommy makes his way to the kin Ummm Tommy makes his way to the king of Hell he had to knock out and steal the ferryman's boat to get there which is pretty damn badass if you ask me only to find out that The other storyline runs two issues and has a whole Zombie theme running through it. So fuck yeah! Of course, both of these storylines have a whole lot more running through them then my simple little descriptions above. We are still very much playing around with the theme of literature and the power of words. We are still very much in the world of The Unwritten. This volume actually brings back a lot of the characters we have met along our long journey here. It's all very cool. I love this comic to pieces! Just wait until the last panel! It's gonna leave you sitting there with your jaw hanging! It's all just so fucking wicked!

This is only the second volume in The Unwritten series to get less than five stars from me, but I think that might be only a preference thing. This is Unwritten: Orpheus in the Underworlds Volume 8 a great piece of this story. It was just missing a little oomph for me. I've got to save my five star ratings Unwritten: Orpheus in the Underworlds Volume 8 the oomph. Which is silly, because this was chock full of unbelievably cool things.
