Even if you are not familiar with the Twilight series (you
have been under a rock obviously) you will enjoy the pretty pictures of this
anime-inspired re-telling. After all, everyones beautiful in this universe. The
graphics have all the dazzle and zip you would expect and the story translates very well
to the graphic format. I am not surprised that the novel is split over several volumes as
there is a lot going on and the graphics are large for the page. My issues with the whole
romantic vampire thing notwithstanding (vampires DO NOT SPARKLE gholdarnit!) it is nice to
look at. You will, of course, get more from the original novel but this would do for
reluctant readers and ones wanting to quickly get on board with Team Edward or Team Jacob. |
