It's about trying to rebuild. As the title suggests, there's a larger world out there for the characters.
This volume sees the introduction of Jesus. He's a lot more badass than his tv version. The first thing he does in this is beat Abraham and Michonne in a fight. It takes a lot longer for Rick to start trusting him too.
Possibly the biggest shock in this volume was the source of the suggestion that their favour to the Hilltop be the one that leads to all out war in future volumes.
This isn't the most action packed book in the series, but it does a really good job of setting the wheels in motion for what promises to be the most brutal storyline so far. The quality of the writing remains strong, the art remains at a high standard.
Now I need to get my mitts on the next few volumes. I wonder if I can read the whole saga by the end of the year.
