”The art is gorgeous, filled with incredible detail. Wake is sci-fi action-adventure done right, with beautiful art and entertaining, complex stories. Check it out.” – Slushfactory.com

”Grade: A. Gives readers their money's worth by packing in the plot and saturating their worlds with color and detail. Succeeds in making a strong impression.” – Oliver Chin, Comics Buyers Guide

”Buchet's art is so colorful, clean, and visually arresting that it is easy to overlook the complexity of the world created by writer Morvan.” – VOYA

”Morvan's conceptual and thematic sophistication is astonishing, the equal of, say, Alastair Reynolds's, and his talents are felicitously matched by Buchet's intricate, dense and amazingly harmonious and astonishing drawings. This series is a winner, and at two tales for the price of one, a bargain as well.” – Asimov's

”The artwork is exceptionally good. The story line quite complex and intelligent.” – SF Chronicle
