The Sandman meets Dark Souls in Fearscape: A Dark Interlude - a world with infinite sequels, dark creatures, endless possibilities, trapped in repetition ... this is the story of how humanity escapes. THE WORLD IS TRAPPED AND DOOMED
Trapped in a cycle of infinite sequels, the world is doomed to repeat tired tropes and clichéd conflicts without end. Unless that is, unreliable narrator, notorious plagiarist, and sequel denier Henry Henry can unleash something so awful it deserves no repetition. After the stunning success of Fearscape, comes A Dark Interlude, the story of “—No! The only offense to literature greater than the loathsome synopsis is the sequel. I will not stand idle while some poor excuse for an editor mangles and confuses my story, which is intact, perfect, and concluded, with this derivative drivel. Mark my words, this nonsense has nothing to do with my tale. I am not in it. I do not condone it. And you, dear reader, should not buy it.” –HH But don’t listen to Henry Henry – the only way to escape is to buy this book! Collects the complete five-issue series I give FEAR SCAPE VOL 2: A DARK INTERLUDE ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐!
This novel is very well done and packed with some deadpan humor. You follow Henry Henry as he tells you endless sequels of events. He's the narrator and he has the same voice as in the middle-grade novel A SERIES OF UNFORTUNATE EVENTS.
The story begins with a letter from Henry Henry that explains his situation and yes, he did plagiarize his novel and apologizes. But his confession gets more intense and the twist and turns begin.
After a brief introduction of Henry Henry the story begins. The illustrators, I felt did a wonderful job capturing the setting and characters. They're simple drawings but poignant to the story and mood.
Finally, my only regret is that I didn't read the first novel FEARSCAPE VOL 1, because the plot was a bit confusing for me and I think if I read the first novel I wouldn't have been as confused. But once I got halfway through everything fell together.
Overall, I highly recommend reading FEARSCAPE VOL 2: A DARK INTERLUDE, particularly if you're a big comic book fan and love dark, twisted tales.
