Book Reviews of Bone: One Volume Edition
Book Review: Much better in one volume
Summary: 4 Stars
I spent more than a decade collecting the individual issues of Bone. The wait of 2 or more months between issues hardly did it any favours and I have to admit that it had started to lose me about halfway through as it seemed to become incredibly twee.
There's no denying it has certain twee elements, but what struck me reading the all-in-one edition is how much more funny, more adult and more dark it was than I remembered. The story, as a whole, really does work much better than the original issues.
Ultimately, this Disney-meets-Tolkien style book isn't going to appeal to all. But it holds up very well, and people like myself who grew up with Rupert Bear Annuals will notice some similarities. Don't miss the single edition - I understand its a limited printing.
