In this superhero adventure, Princess Diana of Themyscira longs for adventure and discovery.To prepare for someday leading her people, 14-year-old Diana must learn about her world. She begins by finding out hidden secrets of the past, including a painful and violent truth about her mother's actions to free the Amazons. Through her lessons, Diana forms new relationships with several of her sister Amazons. From her newly returned aunt, Antiope, Diana gathers insights into life in the world outside Themyscira. The detailed and vibrant illustrations make many of the scenes pop and feel full of movement. The inclusion of Diana's inner monologue in yellow thought bubbles offers a clear delineation from the dialogue and allows readers to understand how her thoughts evolve over the course of her adventures. Even though she's the future queen, she's still an authentic teenager who desires the company of people her own age, thinks her mother doesn't listen to her, and at times wants to be left alone to deal with her emotions. This graphic novel doesn't always feel cohesive given the number of events it covers, leaving readers with questions about characters like Circe and Persephone, who appear only briefly. Diana has light skin and black hair; the Amazons have different body types and skin tones.A well-loved character gets new depth through colorful, expressive illustrations.
