What do You think about Cirque Du Freak, Vol. 1 (2009)?
I have to say, the graphic novel was almost as good as the actual book. I borrowed this from the library out of my love for the first one - and I was very curious to see how I would like the graphic novel! The artist did an amazing job at illustrating - seriously! It was like the character's emotions were leaping off the page at you! I thought the way that all the characters were drawn was perfect, exactly how I imagined them. Even if you had not read the book, you easily could have followed the story. I have not read many graphic novels before but I have read a couple where I completely lost the story. There were bits where the drawing didn't really cover what was going on, leaving me like huh? But this one was super easy to follow and still engrossing.I literally can not find fault with this story - hence the five star rating! It was also super quick to read, I did not expect to get through it as quick as I did. It could probably easily be read in one sitting. One little bit at the end that I really liked was the little afterword/ish book by the illustrator. It made me laugh! Definitely recommend this! If you have read the first book by Daren Shan, you should have a read of this. Can not stress enough how much I would advise this! Even if you have not read the book I would still recommend this. Though I would advise reading the novel first. Just a suggestion though it does not really matter.
