Assassin's Creed: Last Descendants: Locus
S**U
A cool side story to the main YA books
A graphic novel that takes place between the two books of the main series, The Last Descendants and Tomb of the Khan. Primarily follows Sean, a teenage boy recently confined to a wheelchair, as he goes through the memories of an ancestor of his, Tommy Greyling a former beat cop who's now, as of this story, a Pinkerton Agent. There's an article at the end that describes exactly what the agency was. The main thrust of the story is Tommy headed to London on the trail of a killer who took something precursor related. Along the way he's helped by Mark Twain, not exactly sure why he became part of the story, and Inspector Abberline. The latter of which brings in two friends of his Henry Green and Evie Fry of Assassin's Creed Syndicate fame. No Jacob, but after having played Syndicate there's a chance he might have caused a bigger mess lol.A small note, this takes place after the game and there is a certain spoiler about a particular relationship inside.the story itself is decent, Henry and Evie play a more secondary role here as Tommy is the focus. Also in the present his friends worry Sean may be woing the animus a bit too much since he can "walk"again while in there. While they could have done something similar in the novels proper it is nice they gave that story a bit to breath on it;s own. Art is alright. Skimming through it I had a hard time telling Evie apart from the villain of the piece but siting down and and reading it proper I was finally able to tell them apart. Although Evie looks a bit younger here than she does in the came, but that could just be the styles of the different mediums.If you're an Assassin's Creed fan, or even enjoyed the book this is spun off from, I'd say pick it up.

so I highly recommend it to teens and older
LOCUS ties in to the young adult The Last Descendants mini-series from Scholastic by Matthew J. Kirby. This story focuses solely on the Templar’s investigation, using young Sean to get the details about Tommy Greyling a Pinkerton agent in Victorian London.This standalone story is a fast-paced and exciting story for fans of the series. It’s not absolutely necessary to have read the Last Descendants series (books 1 and 2 are out now) to get to know the modern day characters, as the story focuses mostly on the Victorian quest. But I’m really enjoying the series, so I highly recommend it to teens and older. They are quick and easy reads with a great twist. And this graphic novel installment is another exciting story and some fun interactions with a historical figure.
