Follow Lady Talli and her faithful companion Sir Alan on an epic adventure fleeing from Lord Ulric, her adoptive father’s nemesis. What Lord Ulric and his cronies don’t know is that Talli is the last of her kind, a summoner with very powerful magic running through her veins. In their escape they will meet friends who will help them and learn about Talli’s ancestors and her power. Join Talli and Alan as they find allies along the way and fight to escape to safety.

This book boasts stunning artwork combined with a plot that will have you hooked from the beginning. Once you pick it up, you won’t be able to put it down until you’re done.

I would recommend this to young adults and adults who are familiar with fantasy, as well as people who are interested in getting into fantasy and/or manga/graphic novels.

A very interesting story, it is a first volume but it sets the stage for a beautiful manga.

Many designs are really beautiful. The protagonists are very interesting, a Summoner, one of a kind. For fear of her power she is thrown out. During this journey to a safe place, she meets people who decide to travel with her. Little lelo is what intrigues me a lot, I would like to know a lot more to know why he is so ruthless and so strong and why he doesn't sleep at night.

Really curious to read the sequel, after the cliffhanger of the finale

Kept hidden away in the castle by her father, Talli is a Summoner; a nearly extinct people hunted by those who live in fear of their powers. With Lord Ulric and his soldiers after her, Talli must flee the castle with her guardian knight, Sir Alan. When they run into some unexpected help in the marketplace, two more quirky characters join their team. While fleeing Lord Ulric's knights, Talli finds those who can teach her about both her powers and her mysterious background. But with Lord Ulric's Captain Nina not far behind, Talli and her crew must always keep one step ahead.

Plenty of action-packed sequences and well-drawn characters. The story is quite fast-paced so the context can feel a little garbled at first. The reader has to persevere for a bit before things start to make sense. As the story is forming, I am looking forward to the next bit.

Thank you Netgalley for the eARC!
This is an epic tale of a young girl who is the Daughter of the Moon. The manga starts off with the girl, Talli, escaping her father's castle as there are people after her. While on the run she befriends two interesting trades people and their journey begins,
The art style of this is gorgeous. The line work is so smooth and truly lovely. I am very excited to read more from this series and will be preordering a physical copy asap.

I'm in love. The characters are loveable and the Illustration is so good. Can't wait for the second volume

Loved the cover,Loved the story,Loved the illustration style.
I can't wait for the story to continue.

One: the cover of this is GORGEOUS!
Two: This would be incredible as an anime because I can just picture the colors now.
Three: I love this plot idea, and can’t wait to see what comes next.

A very fun premise, likable characters, and fun artwork. Definitely had some points that seemed a little blah to me, but overall, Im very interested and want to see more.

This comic has a cliffhanger ending.
The illustrations are a rough ink style.
I love the main character design, the hair and jewelry.
This is a great adventure story with a unique group of characters. Secret identits, murder, theives all wrapped up in this comic book. I believe this is good for those as young as 13years old.
There is sword fighting with serious injuries, but nothing extremely graphic.
I can’t wait to see what happens next.

I thoroughly enjoyed getting to know the characters, magic, and mayhem of this universe. I truly am excited to learn more of Lady Talli and her companions in future volumes.

Thank you to Netgalley and the publishers for granting me an arc.

This was a fun read!

Talli is the last of her kind, a summoner. Unfortunately that also means she's highly sought after by Lord Ulrich for the sole purpose of exterminating her as the humans have done to every other summoner.

Aided in her escape by her adopted father, Lord Borin, Talli goes on the run with Sir Alan, a Knight and along the way pick up two new companions, Pavel and Lélo. They're hunted by the ferocious Captain Nina who will stop at nothing to complete her mission. In this case taking Talli down.

I actually laughed out loud at one part and I love how they bounce off one another. I can't wait for volume 2

3.5 stars.

A nice adventure story in the vein of traditional Medieval fantasy, in which a girl that's believed to be the last living Summoner is pursued by the royal forces intent on capturing her to eliminate all vestiges of the Heretics, a sect of Moon worshippers they want wiped out. This girl, Talli, has the blood od the Moon Goddess and has powers to summon the fabled beasts of yore and act as the harminising link between nature and its creatures, a power the king covets but fears at the same time. To protect her from the king's henchmen, her guardian sends her to a mysterious lady for shelter and hiding, and on the way there the girl collects a bunch of sidekicks and meets people that help in her learning about her true origins and power.

It's a quick-paced tale, and starts in the middle of a castle siege, so you're thrown right into the action without context. All the information is revealed along the way, so you have to persevere till you understand more of the world and what's going on with Talli when revelations start. I liked the traditional storytelling, but its very traditionalism might not appeal to others because it makes the story rather clichéd in some ways, from the damsel in distress that turns out to be a powerful being to the too-noble knight to the ruthless pursuer to the comic companions. It's not particularly subversive, and I've seen other graphic novels with this same concept that were more suspenseful and attractively original, but nevertheless this is a good story for lovers of the Medieval-like adventure genre.

Lady Talli is there adopted daughter of Lord Born. He kept her as a secret because if the king or the other lords find out about her, they'll kill her. However, the truth can't stay hidden forever. When Lady Talli is forced to escape the castle where she grew up, she is joined by a knight and by a couple of merchants—who also happen to be strong warriors— and together they go on a journey to find a safe place for Talli. At the same time, Talli needs to learn more about her heritage and her powers because she'll need the knowledge if she wants to have a chance to survive.

This comic is full of action starting on page 1. We find out why Talli is wanted for halfway in the comic, and once you find out you can't stop yourself from reading it as fast as possible. I'm also curious to see how the relationship between Talli and Lelo develops. I'm looking forward to volume 2.

YES YES YES!!!! This is so fantastic. The humor is goofy and some of the characters remind me of favorites from anime. The art style is ghibli mixed with Shonen humor.

tl;dr
A solid fantasy adventure with an immediately likable cast and strong, detailed artwork.

About
The Summoners are dead. All but one, at least. Talli has spent her life hidden away, but enemies have found her, and now she's on the run. Accompanied by the knight Alan, and guided by a strange man and boy with secrets of their own, Talli must escape to a safe place and learn the truth about her powers.

Thoughts
I love a good fantasy adventure, and this is a good fantasy adventure. On the surface, it has all the things you'd expect: a princess-like sheltered girl with a strange power, a too-noble knight, a dangerous old man with a sketchy past, and a young lad with secrets of his own. But it's the familiarity with the genre and expectations that makes this such a good read. Characters are written with pathos rather than as tropes, and the author's love for the genre is clear. The art style lends to the mood very well. It's a delight to see traditional inking in our digital era. Heavy inks and hatching give the story a very lived-in feel, along with a wealth of environment art, and some really clever use of tones for lighting. While not drawn in gory detail, the story does not shy away from violence - with several people losing limbs or heads along the way. Longtime fans of the genre will probably not find many surprises in the plot; but like a favorite meal I keep returning to, sometimes I just want something familiar made with expertise and love. Talli absolutely feeds that hunger, and I look forward to the next volume!

Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for the ARC :)

An epic fantasy adventure made in perfect, shounen manga- like style.

I've been really looking forward to reading this one, and I was not disappointed.
It feels like Vinland Saga and Fairy Tale had a love child and gave us Talli Daughter of the Moon. It has humor, really cool battle scenes and an intriguing story that I can't wait to read more of.

I would definitely recommend this to older fans of manga and the fantasy genre in general.
