Luckily, this volume didn&#8217;t end quite as badly as volume 5. The story is nowhere close to finished, but at least we aren&#8217;t left wondering about Agatha&#8217;s safety.<\/p>\n<p>I have to admit that the Jaegermonsters are starting to become my favorite characters in the series. They&#8217;re literal, they&#8217;re brash, and they seem to be unfailingly loyal. Plus, they&#8217;re awfully amusing. I think the purplish Jager is my favorite, but that could change at any time.<\/p>\n<p>As with previous volumes, one of the things I like best is that it&#8217;s very difficult to tell the motivations of various individuals&#8211;the more you learn about someone, the more complex they become, and the harder it is to write them off as simply evil.<\/p>\n<p>If you haven&#8217;t checked out the Girl Genius series, you really ought to.
