New on The Word of the Nerd Online, I review Crayfish #1. A refreshing, unique spin on the old superhero theme. Well worth the time and investment.
‘This story works on every level. Though it takes place over half a century in the past, it is relevant today. Laird’s narrating style is subtle — the reader must pay close attention as this tale unfolds; nothing is obvious.’
‘The pacing is perfect, as a few jumps into flashbacks break up the action and give us necessary background information. The story comes together like puzzle pieces beginning to resemble the box they came in, and everything falls into place at the end. I found myself smiling at the refreshingly warm tale, and marveling at how well it was constructed.’
