This is CLAMP at their most experimental. What the means is, the artwork is beyond gorgeous, but there's not as much as you'd expect from a 500 page manga since CLAMP decided to be all avant-garde with the panel layout. There are some pages that are blank save for a single panel taking up maybe an eighth of the page. So even though this omnibus contains four volumes, it feels like a mere four chapters. Worse still, this is one of the few incomplete CLAMP series, so the story ends mid stream. This isn't too bad as it's an episodic tale, but there are loose ends and a lack of resolution for the themes.
