My rating: 4 of 5 stars
This was an interesting start of a series. The whole plot is more or less in the blurb. Huge towers appear around the globe and monsters spill out. People called Tower Walkers enter the tower and must fight their way, gaming style, to the top in the belief if they can reach the 100th floor, they'll get answers and stop this invasion.
Jaehwan is one of those Tower Walkers, going into battle with great hopes and no doubt a load of PTSD by the end. This is an adaptation of a novel and it's done in color. The palette is muted and appropriate for the apocalyptic feel of the story. I love the art.
If you follow my reviews, you know I usually get bored fast by the fight fight fight style of story telling but it's too soon to tell if that will be the case. Maybe not as this does feed plot tidbits in between all the fight scenes. We shall see. I don't want to give out more of the plot because it would be a heavy spoiler. I do think I'll look for more of this for my personal library at the moment.
