I just recently read this wonderful graphic novel and I'm so happy I did. Finder has compelling stories, intriguing characters, fascinating world building and my new favorite hero. When I finished reading it the first time, I immediately began again. There is so much wit and wisdom within. I highly recommend it.

Picked up Finder: Voice in a bookstore so ordered this collection. While I enjoyed Voice more, I love the richly detailed universe McNeil created and she has some interesting characters. I'll definitely check out v.2.

I came to reading Finder because one my favorite comic series' (Digger by Ursula Vernon) had been compared to it numerous times. I can see where those comparisons were coming from, but I find that they are very different experiences. Where Digger is an epic adventure, Finder is more of a dense and convoluted daydream.
The bulk of this volume is comprised of the "Sin Eater" narrative. Where I found parts of it really interesting, I found other parts extremely boring. Half of the time I felt like I had no idea what was going on. It took a considerable effort to make myself finish it. "King of the Cats" was my least favorite story in here, while "Talisman" was a nice refreshing perspective on the art of storytelling.
Overall, I can say I liked Finder, but definitely didn't love it. It had some great artwork and some truly beautiful passages, but ultimately I found it too dense to really enjoy.
