The Merchant of Death Graphic Novel by D.J. MacHale
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
I loved this graphic novel of one of my favorite books! Revisiting the first book in the series in a different format was wonderful! Bobby is still as hilarious and goofy as ever, Press is mysterious and wise, and Loor is all anger and sass.
Bobby Pendragon gets whisked away to another universe by his mysterious Uncle Press, and with the help of other Travelers, tries to help a tribe of poor miners start a revolution or find justice through peace. But the evil Saint Dane is determined to push the war in his own favor, and destroy the world of Denduron.
I loved the art style! I loved the dialogue! I loved the characters, and the action, and the plot! I read it all in one sitting and enjoyed every bit of it. Of course, there’s so many good bits of the story that are left out because it has to be condensed for a graphic novel, but the bones of the story are there and the characters are still well-written as themselves.
