Which Should You Buy?
Hero is a divisive beast: one minute it's a breathtaking, nuanced oriental, the next a bland, disappointing dud. Expectations are clearly high given the price, but it's hit or miss whether you'll find your own epic journey here.
Afnan's Abstract is a truly unique, sophisticated beast, delivering niche quality at an unbeatable price. It's wildly divisive whether it's an Encelade clone, but everyone agrees it's a deep, rich cherry-rhubarb triumph. Prepare to be complimented and feel utterly mysterious.
