Formic Wars

review 1: When I ordered this book, I was unaware that this is a comic book. But having read just about everything else in the Ender-verse, I wasn't going to send it back. And I wasn't disappointed in the least. This is really a very entertaining book and an excellent read. Now, I'll have to eagerly await the sequel (Formic Wars: Silent Strike)... My advice if you want to read this: make sure you have the sequel at hand, before you open this one ;)
review 2: I dug this, and enjoyed the art and coloring. No surprising bad language, a nice extension to the Ender story. It just didn't "pop." I'm sorry that the comment is so subjective, but it was just missing something intangible. Tangible-wise I can say that I found the illustration of the Formics a little disappointing. I... more'm not sure if it was or was not intentional, but they just didn't strike fear in my heart. I enjoyed how it hopped around from place to place. I loved the characters to whom we were introduced. A little development was lacking for many of them, but it is a graphic novel that moves quickly. If you like the Ender universe, this is a must read. If you are unfamiliar with it, this may inspire you to pick up Ender's Game. After that, you should grab Ended's Shadow. Recommend. less
