Visions (Part One) Reviews

definitely worth reading aloud

It's just beautiful to look at. The art is really lovely and in certain parts I can't help wishing there were notes so I could be sure I'm identifying all the people on the pages from history. The words are really well written, and thanks to his video trailer, and the style, I can just about hear them in Akala's own voice, which is kind of spooky. I'm looking forward to more and to listening to the album that goes alongside it. Well worth reading.

Best experienced. Something for the growing mind.
