Thank you, Rockstar Book Tours, for the chance to read and review The Last Book You’ll Ever Read (the complete series) by Cullen Bunn, Vlad Popov, and Leila Leiz!
For the book tour, we read all 8 comic books (a grand total of 192 pages), around 24 pages a book! The series is available on Amazon for $17.92 (all of them) and was published by Vault Comics. They’re available via Comixology on amazon, so they’ll be super friendly to read on the kindle app!
Review
Our main character, Olivia, achieves what every writer wants; for their book to cause mass rioting. I’m kidding, but not really. But as the comic progresses, Olivia, hailed and reviled as a prophet, realizes that her book may not have been as original as she initially thought!
I loved how this book played with the concept that the Abrahamic religions center on; the idea of a text being revealed. I also loved that Olivia edited out sections from the book before publishing it! As we get to more series, we’ll see the consequences of that editing; perhaps we already do with some people able to resist the effects of the book.
The comic book does lean into a lot of horror tropes. Olivia and the bodyguard start hooking up, and we see a lot of her breasts, etc. That being said, the comic book was pretty, and if you like supernatural horror, then you’ll enjoy this.

About the book:

Read this book at your own peril.
Olivia Kade wrote the book that ended the world. Now she needs someone who won’t read it.
Civilization is a lie. Hidden deep in our genes is the truth. And it is slowly clawing its way to the
surface. Olivia Kade knows the truth, and she has become the prophet of the coming collapse.
Her book, SATYR, is an international bestseller, and it is being blamed for acts of senseless
violence and bloodshed all over the world. Olivia’s own life is in danger from those who have
read her work. Determined to conduct a book tour, she hires security professional Connor
Wilson to act as her bodyguard. She only has one requirement: he cannot read her work.
John Carpenter’s In the Mouth of Madness meets Chuck Palahniuk’s Lullaby in this terrifyingly
dangerous tale of the descent of humankind where reality and fantasy collide.
