"One of the best graphic novels ever." - Brian K. Vaughan (SAGA, PAPER GIRLS)
Superstar creative team Garth Ennis (THE BOYS) and Steve Epting (Captain America: Winter Soldier) re-unite for a follow-up to their bestselling WWII graphic novel SARA.
1941. Aleksandra, a blacksmith’s wife, is thirty when the German invasion comes. With her husband in the army, she and her son and daughter are left to fend for themselves. And when a brutal campaign of genocide begins, her only hope is to join the partisans.
Resistance fighters hated by the Nazis and distrusted by the local peasants, the partisans offer Aleksandra and her family a home- but only at a price. To protect her children from the horrors that surround them, this very ordinary peasant woman must learn to fight like a soldier- and to survive between the fronts of the bloodiest war in human history, no matter what the cost.
Wonderful storytelling and presentation. Can't wait for the next installment. At one point I realized wasn't breathing and just holding back the tears. The story had that big of an impact.

Another terrific WW2 adventure
Similar to Sara, this is Garth Ennis and Steve Epting at their best. The brutality experienced by ordinary Russians at the hands of German soldiers is masterfully brought to life.
