Review

Praise for the Cleopatra in Space series: "Cleo is a fun, fearless heroine -- I'd love to explore the galaxy with her!" -- Raina Telgemeier, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Smile*"Maihack's characters, both human and nonhuman, are diverse, expressive, and visually distinct." -- School Library Journal, starred review"Cleo's easygoing confidence makes her a likable... heroine, but the real star of the graphic novel is Maihack's art. The cinematic paneling during action sequences skillfully conveys Cleo's vivacity and flair." -- Kirkus Reviews"A delight, with its exciting layout of a futuristic Egypt complete with cool pyramid skyscrapers." -- Booklist"Cleopatra smoothly slips into the role of confident, wisecracking, baddie-dispatching hero, and the supporting cast falls neatly into place as well." -- Publishers Weekly

    This third volume in the Cleopatra in Space series lives up the excitement introduced in the first two volumes. Once again, Cleopatra is out to take space by storm, but first she has to survive an attack by Octavian's fleet of ships. When she and her friends get separated, they set out to find the answers they set out to find on the planet of Hykosis. But they aren't that far ahead of Octavian and soon find themselves in more trouble than ever before. Maihack has created a really fun series with a great female lead. The other characters are important to the story, even seeming adversaries. The author even throws in some shocking twists that change the arc of the story in surprising ways. For young graphic novel aficionados this is a thoroughly engaging series with great characters and great plot twists. Highly recommended.

    I sent my granddaughter several of the Cleopatra in Space books because she adores this series. Some of the books she had already read but wanted to re-read which I consider high praise for the author. She was thrilled with this gift and I was thrilled to be sending her books she loves.

    Excellent book for children aged 7-12

    Review from a 10 YEAR OLD avid reader of graphic novels:
    I like this book because it was really good and interesting and i think it was an amazing book to read.There was lots of action and fighting and time travel. I didn't pick 5 stars because there were some parts in the book were i couldn't understand parts and some parts were weird which could be kinda interesting. So i really really LIKE the book. You should read it one day and find out how amazing this book really is. CLEOPATRA in space is one of my favorite books in the world. I want to be helpful to whoever is thinking about buying this book.And here is one option YES.If you read this book already please be sure to share your thoughts and ideas with other people so you can share how wonderful of a book this is. So take your time and think right now if you are interested in getting this book. Hope you like it or even love it. Bye

    My 9 year old daughter LOVES this series. She gets a (tiny) bit of history and sees a strong girl taking action; she even looks a bit like her! I love that she's found something that she is excited to read and it's not all princesses waiting to be saved. The graphic novel format also allows my younger daughter to flip thru the book and "read" it as well!

    This series is absolutely amazing! My daughter, who just turned 5, is obsessed. We have all four books and have read them all probably 50 times!
  • Reviewed in the United States on October 13, 2016
    A lot of the puzzle pieces really start coming together in this one. Cleopatra just keeps getting better and better. And did I mention the amazing sets/locations? Some of these pages you could look at for days and days. Mr Maihack's work is as stunning as ever.

    Outstanding novel with fantastic characters,brilliant plot and story arcs.
    It's soo tempting to just keep turning the pages...,but what about the art ?!
    Just dwell on the backgrounds and savour the detail.
    Shame about Akila's arm though,but we've got the shooting range challenge
    to look forward to.
    And the next big question - Ray gun or Stun blades ?
    The dynamic art of this series is really addictive...,woo hoo !
    I wonder what would have happened if Zaid hadn't taken a bullet
    and Cleo had to face the blast,could she have turned pink and
    absorbed or deflected it ?
    Who would have thought though...,Gozi ?
    That revelation was a curve ball.
    So I'm looking forward to more blaster fights,mayhem and adventure.
