This is another solid entry in O’Connor’s Olympians series, this time covering the legends of Apollo who is best known as the sun god (but also holds healing and prophecy, among others, under his purview).
As usual, the artwork is very well-done, in the same unique style as O’Connor’s other books. And following previous formats, in this book readers can find extras such as Character profiles, as well as interesting facts and notes that O’Connor collected while research
I didn’t think this one was as strong as the others. I felt having the muses tell Apollo’s stories was distracting, especially the one where the narrative panels were interrupted with interpretive dance. However, other readers might enjoy this ambitious technique. It could also have been less enjoyable because Apollo is just not that sympathetic and interesting of a character when compared to other Olympians. I was moved, however, at the ending as it revisited the beginning. Nicely done there.
