Y: The Last Man: One Small Step

Brian K. Vaughan


Purchase this title at B&N

The third installment in Vaughan's Y: The Last Man series keeps things going at the same pace, with lots of action, interesting new characters, and further development of the plot. Yorick, 355, and Dr. Mann are continuing their cross-country journey to get to Mann's lab in San Francisco, but of course stuff has to get in the way. In this case, it's the possibility of three astronauts, two of them male, still being alive on the space station and trying to get back to Earth. Needless to say, if they stop, some of the people following them are bound to catch up with them...

Y is a fine series, well worth reading. Everything I've already said about it still holds true, and the storyline is getting more compelling as time goes on. If you tried the first book and weren't terribly impressed, keep going; it gets real good real fast.
