While overall, I felt the stories in the first volume were stronger as a whole, I have to say there were a few stories in this one that gutted me in a way none did the first time around.
Once again, the stories, and/or the retelling of indigenous legends, were wonderful to read, if not always completely understandable by a totally white guy, at the art captured the flow and feel of the stories very well.
Overall, an excellent follow-up to the first volume. ( )
I was worried after reading the first two stories in this collection -- vague and weird tales by a few of the only authors who also contributed to the first volume -- but the quality picked up with the third story by a new author about the power of hair and friendship. The rest of the volume was mostly new writers also, and I generally enjoyed or admired their tales of indigenous people in the past, present and future.
The ratio of indigenous creators improved with this volume to two-thirds, with the non-indigenous mostly providing art for a majority of the stories.
I'll be picking up the third volume at the library this afternoon. ( )
