The full-color, critically acclaimed graphic novel series that started as a webcomic! In a competition for apprentice magicians and their animal familiars, non-binary Lucy is chasing the reward...and learning the cost.

The competition to become the new city Representative—a magician who serves the magistration and protects the people from monstrous husks—is fierce. Eight young apprentices and their animal familiars are vying for the role, while behind the scenes, corrupt officials work to ensure their favored contestants make it to the next round. Lucy Marlowe wants the job more than anything. A win would show their master that they aren’t a worthless waste of effort. But being Representative isn’t all it’s cracked up to be!

Championed as Best New Webcomic of 2015 on Comics Alliance, this first graphic novel of the acclaimed full-color webcomic by American artist Taylor Robin is bringing its rich magic and character drama to bookstores across the globe. (Collects the first five chapters of the comic originally published online, alongside print-exclusive bonus illustrations.)

Praise for Never Satisfied Vol. 1

"A delightful webcomic by Taylor Robin, with sharp artwork, artful storytelling, and a colorful, diverse cast of characters, Never Satisfied is a deserving winner of best new webcomic of 2015, and hopefully will go from strength to strength in 2016." --Comics Alliance

"Robin's cartoonish artwork is full of expressive detail, with thick outlines, bold colors, dense backgrounds, and graceful movement. Meanwhile...characters have a pleasantly exaggerated appearance, which echoes their personalities." --Sarah Hunter, The Booklist Reader (American Library Association)

"...every time I go back and re-read it, I find something else--in the story or the art--that folds in on itself, connecting with everything else in itself, that makes it stronger. It's a fantastically strongly composed comic, not with a masterminded plot with endless twists and turns, but having a wholeness to it where each quality of it ties into the others, forming a union made out of itself to come out stronger than each individual component, even strong as they are." --Colin Spacetwinks, Medium
