Book Review - The World of Lore, Volume 1: Monstrous Creatures by Aaron Mahnke

The World of Lore, Volume 1: Monstrous Creatures

 by Aaron Mahnke


Hardcover: 320 pages
Publisher: Wildfire; 01 edition (10 Oct. 2017)
Language: English
ISBN-10: 1472251652

The world of Lore is the written counterpart to Aaron Mahnke's hit podcast Lore which has captivated listeners with his captivating storytelling and dark stories from history worldwide. 

The world of Lore is a great book that reads just like his podcast meaning that you can practically hear his voice as you read passages of dark stories that leave you unable to put the book down. 

I will point out that if you have heard all the episodes of his podcast you will likely have heard all of these stories read by Aaron already. Although even having heard everything already I found reading it all just as exciting as if hearing them for the first time again given the alternative format. 

I hope that there will become a volume 2 of the series and would defiantly recommend this book to anyone thinking about giving it a try!

Graphic Novel Review: Invincible compendium volume 3 by Robert kirkman TS

Invincible Compendium Volume 3  By Robert Kirkman  Writer:  Robert Kirkman Artist:  Ryan Ottley ,  Cory Walker ,  John Rauch ,  Jean-Francois Beaulieu ,  Nathan Fairbairn Cover:  Ryan Ottley ,  Nathan Fairbairn Published: July 18, 2018 This is my most anticipated graphic novel for the past five years!  So I start this by disclosing that I am a huge fan of Robert Kirkman and the whole Invincible series to start with, I first read the compendium volume 1 maybe eight years ago as a gift from my brother and managed to finish it in a matter of days.

The story being issue to issue jumps right in from the last so ...

Graphic Novel Review - Nancy Drew and the Hardy Boys: The Big Lie by Anthony Del Col

Nancy Drew and the Hardy Boys: The Big Lie by Anthony Del Col Buy it here Something terrible has happened in the nice town of Bayport, Frank and Joe Hardy's father has been murdered and they're suspected of the crime. Only with the help of Nancy Drew can the boys clear their names and find out who really killed their father. Nancy Drew and the Hardy Boys is a great modern take on the crime solving cast with a dark noir theme throughout. I felt the darkness in the art was a great take on the story bringing the duo into their more mature lights. I had never read any of the Hardy Boy or Nancy Drew stories but have really enjoyed this and would read further if this style of writing was a route that it went down again, it is defiantly worth a read for everyone who likes a crime solving graphic novel.
