The Castoffs Vol. 1

Great art, but a messy story. There's an interesting combo of magic and technology, but not enough world building to really draw me into the universe and the world. Writing this review a few weeks after I read the book, I can barely remember the plot or the characters. Probably a fun, fast read for YA, but it has a lot of work to do before it's a decent series.
