Praise for Orient 16

Praise for Magi: The Labyrinth of Magic
"Fast-paced [and] engrossing... This story may have the usual action-adventure elements--midnight kidnappings, tragic deaths, and magical duels--but the message has more nuance to it than just good triumphing over evil." -Anime News Network
