Ninni Spangcole and Noel Niihashi are Wing Bind agents, and they aren't serving out of the goodness of their hearts-they want achievement points and cold, hard credit in their bank accounts. Fairy tales have teeth, and the dedicated agents of Wing Bind are the only thing standing between you and the real story.

Behind the world you think you know lies a land of magic and fairy tales-but Reverse London isn't the pretty picture that's painted in children's books. And as I said, the world is just neat, and knowing what I do in the spoiler tag above, I'm really excited to see where this goes.A slipcased paperback edition of a modern fantasy tale set in the wider world of Bleach, by Bleach author Tite Kubo! Behind the world you think you know lies a land of magic and fairy tales-but Reverse London isn't the pretty picture that's painted.

Some of the characters initially seem a little flat, but likable, and they're beginning to get fleshed out. The art is great, and it's refreshing to get back to what Kubo can do when he's not rushed. Still, that's about the only real complaint I have about Burn the Witch. I just wish we had a bit more time to get acquainted with it all before things start blowing up. The dragons, their types and uses to Reverse London society are interesting. The workings of Wing Bind are interesting. At times, it feels like we don't have much of a chance to just breathe and appreciate the world Kubo is building here, and that's a shame. We go from a revelation about Balgo that places him in the care of Noel and Ninny, our protagonists, to Balgo becoming a wanted man, to learning about a set of uber-powerful dragons, to having one of those dragons show up in what really amounts to a rather short span of time. That said, there were times I found myself wishing Kubo had taken a slightly more leisurely pace, now that he can. Seeing his confirmation of this in a brief note at the end of this volume about how happy he is to be able to draw manga at his own pace has me very excited to see what he can do with Burn the Witch Because, let's face it, it was clear Kubo was getting burnt out by the end of Bleach. I wasn't sure what to expect, but I certainly wasn't prepared for it to be more Bleach! Seriously, when I got to the big reveal at the end of the first chapter, as to what exactly 'WB' stands for, I was absolutely delighted by what could come of this. But in a way, it's fitting, because I went into this series blind, just curious to see what Tite Kubo was up to, post- Bleach.

First, the version I got came with a plain plaid slipcase, which.isn't the most engrossing choice. The subtitle for this volume, 'Don't Judge a Book By Its Cover,' is perfect for a variety of reasons.
