review 1: I will have to say that this is one of the few books that I liked the movie adaption more than the actual book. The book was still enjoyable but Disney’s interpretation I think was even better than the book. The writing style took a little time to get used to but once I was enthralled in the story it started feeling natural. Fun read with enough differences from the movie which I saw first to keep it interesting.
review 2: At the expense of adding, say, 5 more pages, they could've gained a much fuller story arc. The illustration is not to my taste at all (it's reminiscent of the old MTV shows Alexander and Aeon Flux). The facial expressions are shallow and the prose for dialogue is choppy.The graphic novelization follows Edgar Rice Burrough's first John Ca... morerter of Mars story, Princess of Mars, in which John is transported to Mars and becomes a prisoner of the Tharks. They come to respect him for his fighting abilities and elevate him to chieftain (prisoner chieftain, anyway). He falls in love with the princess of the "red people" and ends up having to save the day for all. Glad I read it in the bookstore instead of purchasing it. I'll stick to the non-illustrated original, thanks. less
