Book Description

Age Level: 9 and up | Grade Level: 4 and up

Hana would be like any other thirteen-year-old immigrant trying to fit into life at an American school, but she also battles hostile, animal-like warriors from the dimension of Argon Falls. In discovering secrets about her identity and her past, Hana bravely faces her enemies and realizes her divinely-given purpose. As secrets come to light in this world, darkness ensnares another. After fending off assassins, Hana reveals the story about Argon Falls to her friends in San Francisco. But Pastor James teachers her and Tomo about something even more important---forgiveness and new life. Hana's time here will get cut short, however, when the enemy encircles her family members in a trap back in Argon Falls.

This review is from: Tomo, Vol. 6: Truth Revealed (Paperback)

"Tomo" is a nicely-made 'American Manga' series with fun characters, adventure and the development of friendships. The only let-down is that the story turns out to be a bit 'religious-heavy' at certain points (direct references to christian religion and the christian God as protection and guidance, which feels a bit awkward in a fantasy-themed story). But everyone who isn't bothered by that will have a VERY good read.
