Thank you to Titan Comics and NetGalley for this ARC in exchange for an honest review.

Horizon Zero Dawn: Liberation is a sci-fi/fantasy graphic Novel based off the PlayStation game, Horizon Zero Dawn.

The graphic novel follows Erend and Aloy on a side quest from the main events of the game during which we get a little story about Erend's sister, Ersa, who we never met in the game.

I really enjoyed reading this graphic novel. 

First off, the illustrations are phenomenal! There's so much detail, which led to me having a little chuckle to myself with some of the facial expressions of Erend.

The story doesn't have much purpose other than to give you more insight into the characters and their relationships. It was great for affirming the trust and friendship between Erend and Aloy's characters which is always there in the games whenever the two characters met. We also get to see a side to Erend that is never really addressed in the game, that of his affection for his sister and why it was built on such a solid foundation.

This was the perfect little read for me just now, as the second game, Horizon Forbidden West was released last week and being back with these characters in new quest has made me eager to dive into the game and see where their stories go next.
