The Mouse Guard series (or, I suppose, series of miniseries) tells the story of a medieval mouse society and, in particular, the protectors thereof. The first series, Fall: 1152, serves as a nice introduction to the world and the principal characters. So far, at least, the plot is nothing to write home about, although it's not terrible, either. I'm hoping it will continue to pick up as the series develops and matures. The real draw here, though, is the art. It is wonderfully detailed and shockingly realistic - which is hard to pull off when you have mice wearing cloaks and wielding swords. For this reason alone I'll keep buying this series and watching for anything else David Petersen draws.
