review 1: I don't usually read comic books or graphic novels or anything like that. This was recommended to me by my neighbor, after I revealed that I like the Harry Potter. I didn't read it for the longest time, but when I did, I was very pleasantly surprised. Lots of obvious riffs on the Harry Potter, but that's part of the whole scheme. What a really clever idea, that stories are tools of manipulation and also that the authors are being manipulated to tell stories in a certain way. It's very smart, very creative, lots of great artwork. It took me a while to figure out what was going on at first, and there were a couple other moments when I couldn't quite absorb who was where, but in spite of those blips, it was an overall great experience. As soon as I finished it, I picked up ... morevolume 2.
review 2: The hype monster got me again. I think I would have loved this if I hadn't heard everyone talking about how awesome it was, and how it's one of the best graphic novels they've ever read. Due to that, I had very high expectations. Unwritten just didn't meet those expectations. For the first half of the book, I was very bored. When things finally got interesting towards the end, it cut off to a side story. That just left me bored again, and confused even though it related to the main story. Not sure if I'm going to continue with this series, or if I even care enough to. For those that have read the second volume, does it get better? less
