Summary: all around great story
Review: i have to admit,james robinson really won me out on this one.this is his storytelling before his ideas started to grow a little stale,lately.it's an easy and fun read,is the best i can,or anyone else,can put it.it has a nice sense of fantasy and the mystery of unexplored places. chance falcon,a pre-adolescent school girl is trying to win her father out into the next "falcon",the title of a wizard passed down generations except the only catch to it is yo gotta be a son.and it's too dangerous for her anyway,but she proves her dad and all of us she take take the most dangerous of adventures and come out true.it's got suspense and adventure and paul smith's artwork fits in this series like a glove.it's simple yet gorgeous.kinda how jeff smith's artwork fits into bone,smith's illustration belongs in leave it to chance. read this book to go through a wonderful romp of adventure.

Summary: A great adventure story for adults and kids
Review: This graphic novel (originally published in 4 comic books) introduces Chance Falconer who lives in a modern world where magic exists. Chance is the daughter of the great Lucas Falconer whose family has protected the city from supernatural threats for generations. As Chance tries to prove to her father that she's ready to be trained in the "family business" a mystery is uncovered and a great adventure ensues.I LOVE this book and the rest of the series. The artwork and the writing work perfectly together - telling a complex and intelligent story without losing the sense of innocence and fun that is at its heart. I've given copies of the book to adult friends of mine, children, and early teens and all of them have enjoyed it. I won't buy a book for a kid or teen unless I've read it and liked it. I've had a hard time finding adventure books about girls (there are so few) that fit this bill. But "Leave it to Chance" is a winner.
