Read the full take

Revolutionary Princess Eve begins with a betrayal that would break most people. A princess who has fought for the rights of homunculus rebels is poisoned by her own sister. Eight years earlier, she awakens with one goal: to become empress and free the homunculi before the rebellion ever takes place. The premise is clear and purposeful, and it places the heroine's conviction at the centre of a political struggle.The series is at its best in its scheming. Eve's alliances, including the rebel king as her knight, give the court politics real tension, and the sisters' rivalries add layers. The long-strip format keeps the political chess moving.The weaknesses are a heavy slavery theme that runs through the story and age-regression beats that follow familiar paths. Readers who enjoy political fantasy with a purposeful heroine will find much to like. Those seeking lighter material should look elsewhere, though the plotting is engaging.
