More amazing reviews of Grandville Force Majeure!

The Star said: "This is a thriller, but it has more twists and turns than a Paris back street and a density of storytelling that hearkens back to Talbot’s 1970s/80s masterwork The Adventures of Luther Arkwright. And as emotive as Dotter of Her Father’s Eyes, which Talbot created with his wife Mary and was shortlisted for the Man Booker Prize."

(The Star is wrong here. Dotter of Her Father's Eyes wasn't nominated for a Man Booker Prize, but it did win the 2012 Costa Biography Award, making it the first – and only – British graphic novel to win a major literary award).

Rachel Cooke in The Guardian says: "Strongly recommended (and adored by me) is Grandville Force Majeure, the fifth and final book in Bryan Talbot’s magical series of stories about a steampunk badger detective, Inspector LeBrock of Scotland Yard. In this volume, our hero is on the run, the victim of a diabolical scheme to annihilate him by Tiberius Koenig, one of the greatest villains in all detective fiction."
