Apparently this was originally written in French as Mécanique Céleste, which I didn't know until I finished it. Very cool! I love reading translated work.

‘The envoys are supposed to represent the planets … but that girl’s a star.’

I didn't realise this was a sport-themed graphic novel, oops. Not a genre I'd normally pick up, but I enjoyed this one! The art is really cool and the colour are very ... calming, almost? The colour scheme reminded me of Peanuts, although the genres aren't in the same realm at all. It was very retro! The plot is fairly straight forward: the fate of everyone's future lies with who wins the match. So, in essence it's a very relaxed, sporty version of The Hunger Games.

Worth a read, especially for those who like dystopian, sports or graphic novels!
