Graceling (Graphic Novel) | Kristin Cashore
1 post | 3 read
The beloved New York Times best-selling YA fantasy by Kristin Cashore is now available as a graphic novel, with stunning illustrations by award-winning artist Gareth Hinds. Katsa is a Graceling, one of the rare people born with an extreme skill. As niece of the king, she lived a life of privilege until the day her ability to kill a man with her bare hands revealed itself during a royal banquet. Now she acts as her uncle’s enforcer, traveling the kingdom and threatening those who dare oppose him. But everything changes when she meets Po, a foreign prince Graced with combat skills who is searching for the truth about his grandfather’s disappearance. When Katsa agrees to help him, she never expects to learn a new truth about her own Grace—or about a terrible secret that could destroy them all. With "gorgeous storytelling" (School Library Journal, starred review) and characters "crafted with meticulous devotion" (Kirkus Reviews, starred review), Graceling is a beloved classic that has continued to resonate with readers for over a decade.

Mehso-so

Perhaps I should have read the novel before the graphic novel adaption, because now I don't know how to compare it to the original. It seems like there was a lot of storyline that wasn't developed, but I'm guessing that isn't a problem in the original book. It left this graphic novel feeling incomplete. I did enjoy the main storyline, so I will probably read novel soon. I liked the illustrations, I thought they were done really well.
