My gods. What a world, what worlds, what universebuilding this is. Truly out there, and I love it so. You have to be bought in, and I can't blame anyone who hates it or is not along for the ride, but my god. It is exquisite.

Every ninety years, twelve gods incarnate as humans. They are loved. They are hated. In two years, they are dead. …
A powerful graphic memoir about coming-of-age, coming out, and competitive figure skating.
