- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5This was really... not good. While I'm all for making graphic novel versions of classic books (I'd rather have someone read the graphic novel version than none at all!) - this was a poor adaptation. The art was a poor choice, and while it was a quick read, I doubt many people would pick this up for pleasure. Fans of the classic novel would hate this graphic novel version, and graphic novel lovers would hate the look of this graphic novel. One star.
