Review Quotes
Once again, the illustrations of award-winning Scott B. Henderson and the colouring of Donovan Yaciuk bring the story and its characters and settings to life. Robertson leaves his readers on a cliff edge at the end of Version Control. Stay tuned for volume three of the series! Highly recommended.
-- "CM Association"Powerful, immersive storytelling, with the additional force of kinetic art by Scott B. Henderson and colouring by Donovan Yaciuk. In addition to the explosive superhero storyline, the novel also contains a powerful exploration of trauma and loss, the aftershocks of heroics, and the human cost of being superhuman.
--Robert Wiersema "Quill & Quire"This striking and brilliantly coloured work brings the reader into a visual page-turner.
--Juror "Manitoba Book Awards"Stunningly illustrated by Scott B. Henderson, David A. Robertson's Indigenous young adult story delivers an emotional and suspenseful adventure that humanizes the dark reality of super-powered beings.
-- "Ramón K Pérez"Version Control beautifully navigates friendship and action with stunning illustrations and a superhero heart tinged with horror. You'll be desperate for volume three once you hit the final page.
