"Wondrous insanity." --www.TCJ.com (The Comics Journal)
Review Quotes:
"A must read! With its attention to the artistic process and the almost INDIANA JONESesque mystery of an ancient relic, mixed with a little bit of Japanese fairy tale whimsy,
Rohan at the Louvre is a truly unique reading experience." --www.AintItCool.com
Review Quotes:
"The previous . . . title in the Louvre's distinguished graphic novel series, The Sky Over the Louvre, set an even higher standard than the first three high quality titles, and Araki's gorgeous ghost story easily matches them all for plot, drawing chops and emotional gut-punch. This excellent volume is recommended for fans of extreme manga artishness and for horror otaku." --
Library Journal (May 2012)
