The best show & series!
My son loved this show so we had to continue on with the books after it left us in a cliffhanger. They did not dissapoint!

Part 2 reveals more than you think!! (no spoilers, just hints)
OMG, LOVED this... and it's definitely just as surprising and shocking as Part 1 IF you read between the lines!! It explains a LOT. That said, many readers (and it seems many reviewers) haven't figured things out yet and will need Part 3 to do so.Gorgeous art and awesome storytelling as usual!! And absolutely true to the TV series. Must mention how much I loved seeing actual scenes from the series expanded on in this book.This IS the fourth season of A:TLA and required reading for any true fan! Most especially for all Zuko fans like me. Enjoy!

A Solid Middle Chapter
As a huge fan of this series, though admittedly not until after the series had nearly ended on TV, I want to love every bit of ancillary Avatar: The Last Airbender fiction. I got so hyped for the live action movie, and was so let down. I wanted mote Avatar, more GOOD Avatar, and eventually went searching for news from the creators of the cartoon. That's when I stumbled on the existence of the comics, and I knew I had to buy them. So I gathered up old Amazon gift cards to alleviate the strain on my wallet, and bought The Promise and the first two parts of The Search (part three was not published yet) all at once, and I am so glad that I did. The art is beautiful, and the story so immediately captures the tone and pace of the cartoon that before long it was like watching the show again, which was in turn like revisiting an old friend.Continuing where part one left off, this installment suffers a bit from the "middle installment syndrome" that is a necessary part of so many trilogies. It had a lot to set up, and did this effectively, but it didn't actually resolve anything. Also, while this isn't glaring enough that I would lower my score over it, I thought the foreshadowing for the big twist in the next installment (you'll see what I mean if you read these) was a slight bit too heavy-handed, as I caught on immediately. Of course this could just be something that I picked on for some inexplicable reason that no one else would, so this complaint might not even be valid. Either way, this comic is as much a must have for fans of the series as any of them are.

Amazing
I have been a fan of the Avatar ever since I was a kid and this book had an amazing story line on how Zuko found his mother. It shows how far Zuko has come as a person in regaining the fire nation's honor and how no matter what had happened between his father and him. I recommend anyone who loved Avatar as a kid or even as an adult when this first came out, to continue on with the story line after the 100 year war.

Very Entertaining!
This was a gift for my wife who is a huge Avatar fan. She loved it! I personally don't know much about the series, but she was very happy I bought it! 5/5

Family ties complicate
"She was born lucky. You were lucky to be born."That's a pretty harsh thing for a dad to say. But it fits Fire Lord Ozai perfectly. In this story, we see how ruthless he was through some flashbacks that are interspersed with the current adventure. Zuko and Azula as children--Azula already cruel and calculating, hiding behind her childishness to portray false innocence--are caught up in a plot that puts Ozai's deep cruelty on display, revealing why Zuko's mother disappeared and what she was forced to sacrifice.In the present, we see Azula continuing to butt heads with Zuko and with Katara, disturbing every scene with her outbursts and violence as she struggles with visions of her mother telling her her destiny lies beyond the throne. Aang and his crew continue to hunt down Ursa's past, following her trail to the thespian group she was once a part of and finally into the Forgetful Valley.The art is really top notch in this, conveying every mood with depth and implied action where appropriate, and there's that really nice humor that's familiar from the animated series in moments like Aang being asked if he has secret knowledge because of his Avatar powers only to have him reveal he read it on a sign. And theme-wise, I LOVE the extra layer of brother-sister relationship exploration. We already had Katara and Sokka contrasted powerfully with Zuko and Azula, and now we have the story of Misu and Rafa. Another sister who is loyal to her brother and wants the best for him--and is willing to sacrifice for him. It says so much about their characters when Katara recognizes herself in Misu's actions, but Azula hears nothing but a sob story. She would be an entirely unlikable character if not for her desperation that betrays deep insecurity.I'm looking forward to finding out what happens with the Mother of Faces and Zuko's mother in the final chapter!

The question is finally answered!
This book was amazing.! The storyline and plot were excellent! When the TV series ended I always wished they would have revealed what happened to Zuko's mother. And now we finally know! I especially loved the flashbacks so we could see the lives of the royal family members before the avatar story took place. It explained so much. I'm so glad the creators made this book and I hope they will continue to make more.

Beautiful and colored
As a fan of TLA I always wandered what was the story of Zuko's mother and here now I know what happened. The story is very loyal to the TV series and has 3 tomes (i bought them all for myself mwhahaha). The characters ressembled the series, and even Azula has a role in it. I'm French and in France we cannot even find the TV series in English (VO) so it's a shame :/ but now I have the Search trilogy. The design is also very nice, and color and paper has a nice quality i think.

If you're a fan of the tv show Avatar the last air bender you'l enjoy this comic
What is there to really be said about this. If you're a fan of the tv show Avatar the last air bender you'l enjoy this comic. Its a fun story with an interesting art style. You'll get further showings of your favorite characters like Aang and Katara among others. It really fills in that post series ending story. The tv show ends with the fall of the fire nation but we don't realy get to see what happens next. How is the peace kept? What does Aang do? we learn a bit of it during the legend of Korra but there is a lot of story to be told. I can't wait to buy more of these and keep going. It'll keep the withdrawral symptoms of the show ending at bay at the very least. The comics tone is so similar that I can very easily read the different characters in their actual voices. On to the next one
