Just who is this Marco guy and why did the Ghosts find him in an alley, unconscious, and surrounded by the dead bodies of their enemies, the Beasts? He appears to be just a teenager and yet this scene suggests that his combat skill is like that of a veteran. The book starts off with a mystery of sorts. I like to instead go over the points about the story that I liked. Now in these reviews I like to avoid spoilers whenever possible so I typically avoid synopsis of the novel.

This book is strictly about how he came to join the Sky Ghost organization of New York. Marco, as fans of the series will no doubt remember, is the mohawked badass from Sky Ghosts: All For One (which I also reviewed) with a penchant for breaking bones and having an encyclopedic knowledge of how to offend women with obscene commentary, but beyond all that he was a character many came to care for by the end of that story. Sky Ghosts: Marco is the newest entry into the Sky Ghost series and is a prequel starring the titular character, Marco. +Pain and Marco's Brutiful (yeah I combined brutal and beautiful) Friendship Gets its Origin +A Closer Look Into the Life of a Fan Favorite Character Offensive humor, bloodletting, bone breaking, and.pranks!? Once again the story was natural and so were the characters as if you could meet them on the street, or only hope to so you can be even deeply more a part of their interactive lives, as this reader felt while reading it.

Engellmann showing off more of her extraordinary talent as an artist by doing the illustrations as only she can do them justice. Doing this so well I could see this installment, as well as the entire series as a graphic novel with Ms. She is not overly descriptive but, descriptive enough to have each scene and each character description jumping off the pages in 3-D. Engellmann again has woven, a tight and flexible although solid plot with some humorous points throughout that keep the story away from monotony. I fell in love with the characters almost instantly. I love the characters distinctive voices, and simplicity and yet complexities that make them whole and very unique and intriguing individuals. I enjoyed all the characters in the story Pain, Marco, Chris, Zac, Jane (Pain's sister) to name a few. My only hang up is I wish it had been longer, since it was a short story. I read Sky Ghosts: All for One by Alexandra Engellmann and I feel privileged to be able to receive this ARC copy of this wonderful book. As far as fantasy goes, this is at the top of my list of favorites.
