Thank you Netgalley for providing me with an ARC of this in exchange of an honest review.

The concept of this graphic novel is super interesting. The year is 2068. The place, Fontainebleau forest, ancient home of some of France’s mightiest monarchs on the outskirts of what was once Paris. The post-apocalyptic society of Pan survives by growing rice and scavenging among the ruins of a destroyed civilization. 

And it didn't disappoint. I thought it was super entertaining to read, connected with the characters and I think the art was just beautiful! I'm glad I picked it up, because I spent two hours reading it and I had so much fun!

Set in a post-apocalyptic France, Aster of Pan follows a young outcast who becomes her civilization's only hope against a terribly powerful federation. 

I really enjoyed the art style in this graphic novel. The muted colors match the narrative, adding to the bleak and desolate setting. 

The story itself was interesting, but it was a little hard to get into. The relationship between Aster and Wallis was well done and it was nice to see these two different personalities interact.

The Celestial Mechanics game was something that I was not expecting, but it added a unique aspect that set this graphic novel apart from the other post-apocalyptic tales that I have read.

This was a solid first volume in a series. I'm interested to see where the story goes from here.
