Hard to Rate
This is a hard book to rate. On the one hand, the art is pretty doggone good, but the writing is fantastic. This book is better than many novels I've read and movies I've seen.On the other hand, though, the story is just not worthy of a tale set during Conan's Hyborian Age. The story told in the pages of this omnibus is an epic fantasy tale, replete with fantastic non-human races (a flying lion is a main supporting character), big hand fulls of magic and sorcerery, and journeys to other planes of existence.This is definitely NOT what Howard's gritty, sword & sorcery, Hyborian Age is all about.So, if you're looking for a well written fantasy tale that has more in common with Tolkien's Lord of the Rings than Howard's Conan tales, then buy the book.If you're like me, addicted to Conan's universe, then you probably want to look elsewhere.

I loved all three volume of Red Sonja-She Devil With a Sword. The graphic was so clear and bright and I really couldn't put it down. I recommend these volumes to everybody who like this type of entertainment.

Not terrible-but forgettable-buy Volume 1!
My biggest disappointment with Volume 2 is that it didn't have hardly any Mel Rubi artwork. Mel was the man during the first run. But even the storyline this time around seemed very cheesy. I understand it's fantasy and all, but a race of flying lion-headed guys, then undead pirates? It just took the seriousness of it away. I don't know where the story goes from here, but hopefully it takes quite a turn.

Loved it!
I grew up reading my Mom's Marvel comics of Red Sonja. She has always been my favorite for comics. This book was excellent! I really liked how the story flowed. If you are fan of Red Sonja or are looking for a new heroine, this book is a good place to start.

I got this book because I like the whole Red Sonja storyline by dynamite and because I bought the Omnibus vol. 1, but this book isn't as good as vol. 1. Overall I like the story, but I didn't like the delivery. The story didn't flow quite right for me. I felt like they could have added a few more panels to slow the story down a little bit, maybe I just read too much manga. I had to double and triple read certain parts to understand what was going on.

Great Sword and Sorcery... However; it is not Robert E Howard's Sword and Sorcery...
Red Sonja: She-Devil with a Sword Volume 2 Omnibus; collecting issues #19-34 and is a bloody good read and amazing value. Sonja is a fantastic and well written character. The support cast is great. The story is well told -- if the first few issues feel slightly jarring -- and the art is great and clean throughout. Great paper quality and nice bound for a paperback omnibus, If you have never read anything to do with Howard's Hyborian Age yet are craving a new comic series: you will love the fantasy Sword and Sorcery on display in Dynamite's Red Sonja and I highly recommend it to those wanting a great character and fantasy comic...However; with this collection's content there is one draw back. This is set in a pre-established world created by a great man 90 years ago,... this story and set up seems to forget that. Even being an original adaption respect must be honored to the world created by another. The previous 18 issues felt a touch off as well but close enough to Howard's world that it was not off putting, this collection dials it up to 11 and really does break my immersion as a long time Howard and Conan fanatic.So if you have no baggage as a Howard fan, you will LOVE this She-Devil with a Sword series by Dynamite, highly, highly recommend. If you are like me and are a long time lover of Howard's work then just be prepared that this may not feel akin to his work, or even Dark Horse's fantastic Conan run that was made parallel-- just not in connection --to this.In closing: even with the slightly jarring nature in connection to Howard's world this She-Devil with a Sword is a must for any comic book fan!!

The item came really fast, in perfect condition.Everything is as described.The story and art are perfect - from first page to the last one, 100% entertainment.I think the price is fair for hard-to-find title.

another great omnibus
The story of Red Sonja could have really gone anywhere, and these collected comics surely do take it somewhere. Volume 2 is much more fantasy based than the first, meaning there are more talking animals and interesting creatures. I would have to say, I did enjoy Sonja's adventures and am eager to read more and find out what happens next.For the art work, it has changed for the best. It really is eye catching and beautiful.
