review 1: Richelle Mead’s Storm Born #2After reading the first book in this series I couldn’t wait to start the next one. I love Richelle Mead. Every story I have ever read of hers I always find very interesting. I can’t seem to put them down. It is interesting to me how a graphic novel seems like I am taking a break from reading even though I am still reading. I find graphic novels to be similar to movies in the fact that the pictures tell a significant portion of the story, but the words are still there to provide insights into what the characters are thinking and feeling. Many times these emotions and thoughts do not get conveyed in movies. If you enjoy Richelle Mead, graphic novels, super natural stories, or science fiction you will love this series.
review 2:... more> Many thanks to Sea Lion Books for providing a review copy.There’s really only one thing to say about this series: quality is greater than quantity. Lately I’ve been reading a number of graphic novels that just haven’t drawn me in or been very satisfying. At first I wondered if it was because I’m more used to reading Japanese manga where they’re masters at flow, beautiful drawing styles, and storytelling mixed into one. Manga only produces an average of 18 pages a week, or about 32 pages a month depending on the series, so mangaka (the creators) have to master how to balance art and story within those limitations. Graphic Novels tend to give you a bit more leeway when it comes to the pages and many times the artists and authors don’t take full advantage. There are issues with flow, art, proportions, and keeping the story engaging. Storm Born has thankfully been one of the series that doesn’t suffer these short comings. In my review of volume 1, I said that I wasn't blown away by the art but I must admit that it's now growing on me. It certain has an exceptional quality about it compared to what else is out there, and again the coloring is beautifully done. I'm liking Eugenie more and more by the issue and I love love love her expressions now that I'm becoming more attached to the character. The storyline picks up exactly where Volume 1 left off, and as the story progresses there are naturally even more questions. There's definitely more to her new beau Kiyo than meets the eye, so perhaps it was a little more than fate that drew then together? We shall see. I do like that things don't seem to be dragging on for too long and Eugenie actually makes decisions instead of leaving things on the back burner.The pages are short, but the story is rich and engaging. Eugenie starts out doing her ghost-busting thing, but it evolves into a deeper plotline. A teenaged girl has been kidnapped and taken to another realm by the Gentry (the PC form for “Fairy”). Eugenie is her only hope and will need to travel to that realm to save her. I am not familiar with Richelle Mead’s other works, but I’m assuming that these fairies aren’t the friendly Disney kind. Because this is an on-going series, the major plot points are just beginning. So while there’s no resolution, I can say that I am definitely looking forward to the next issue. There’s always room for good urban fantasy and I look forward to what Storm Born can bring to the table. So far it's carving its own niche in the genre. less
