This came out back in August, and I intended to review it. But I was on travel at the time, and with the demands of the weekly review schedule, I wasn't able to cover it. I've read the first half and enjoyed it very much. If you're a science fiction fan and a believer in the transcending power of music, this book is for you! Hopefully I can cover this original graphic novel in the future. It's very cool!

This is a pure rock and roll space opera featuring the legendary Jimi Hendrix as you’ve never seen him before.
Fully sanctioned by Experience Hendrix L.L.C.; Authentic Hendrix, LLC - this is the first ever full-length graphic novel inspired by the music of the legendary Jimi Hendrix – arguably the world’s greatest guitarist.
This 21st Century psychedelic rock ‘n’ roll odyssey sees Jimi Hendrix embark on a quest to the very centre of the universe in search of a magical talisman powerful enough to unlock the incredible latent power of his music so that he can share it with a universe starved of the rock ‘n’ roll by a tyrannical intergalactic force hellbent on silencing all music from the universe and enslaving all life.
