Foiled (2010) - Plot & Excerpts

Aliera does not have any friends at school. The only place she fits in is at at the gym where she is a fencing champ. One day at school, Aliera gets paired up with Avery, the new popular boy in town to do a science lab. Aliera starts to like Avery and he ends up asking her out on a date. The story takes a fantastical turn when they meet up at Grand Central Station to start their date and she pulls out her weapon. If you like fantasy and or romance you'll enjoy the graphic novel, Foiled by Jane Yolen. This was fun - I liked the writing okay and really liked the art. But the pacing could be hard to follow and it was sometimes confusing; there's one scene where the narrator mentions seeing a green glass crown and a bunch of question marks appeared over my head because I flipped both ways in the story and didn't see one anywhere. And so on. But considering it takes half-an-hour to get through (ugh, sorry guys, I know you put a ton of time into this) I'll certainly read the sequel.

What do You think about Foiled (2010)?

Not bad, not great. I think the art is better than the writing.

I found it a trifle hard to follow - quick jumps in plotline.
