Synopsis

A man returns to Thailand after a fifty-year absence. When he was in Bangkok on leave from the Vietnam War, he met a girl and fell in love. After returning to the battlefield, he was critically wounded and shipped to a hospital in San Diego. After recovering from his injuries he goes back to Bangkok looking for Chayan, but she’s not there. A year later he returns and one of the other girls tells him Chayan died during a typhoid epidemic. Devastated, he returns to the States, goes to medical school and eventually starts a family. Now, after fifty years, he goes again to Bangkok, but instead of Chayan, he finds his past had been evolving without him.

What didn't connect for me was the broad stroke narrative, which touches on the post-war......more

Not bad, but unfortunately, the character development is very basic and surface-level. It's hard for the reader to care for any of their fate and it doesn't help that the quality of the art shifts dramatically, not just between, but within issues even, leaving the drama and action really difficult t......more

Goodreads review by Dávid on September 18, 2021

Promising concept, but poorly executed. Story about group of shady sailors and criminals trying to pick up nazi gold from sunken U-boat somewhere in the middle of the Atlantic, only to be hunted by some strange siren. Although not really original, horror setting of empty sea, full of wreckages got m......more
