The Stonekeeper's Curse: A Graphic Novel (Amulet #2): Volume 2

Good

Kids love it

This second volume picks up where the last story left off. Emily and Navin are trying desperately to stay ahead of the elves and to find a cure for their mom. The robots left behind by their great grandfather are doing their best to fill the kids in on the world around them and about the amulet that Emily now wears. But they can't provide much training on it. Enter Leon Redbeard, who helps the group escape the elves and meet up with the resistance...and provides Emily some much needed training on the Amulet. And before the end battles are fought and line are drawn. How will still be standing? The second volume is even better than the first. Kazu weaves a remarkable story through this series and presents strong, realistic characters. Another author might have tried to make Navin the hero or always looking to Emily to do things, but Kazu creates characters that are equally strong and provide encouragement and support to each other. Each new character that we meet has hidden depths to them and are more than they appear to be. I don't want to go into detail on that because its an important part of the story, but let's just say that everyone isn't who they appear to be. The artwork continues to shine and each new image gives us more and more detail into this new world that surrounds us. There are so many details to scope out and the detail given to each character is incredible. The scars, the fur, the nuts and bolts, each is given attention to make it unique to each character. And the colors. The colors are blow me away amazing with their vibrancy and life they bring to the characters. This series has something for everyone, whether young or old, male or female, robot or human, everyone can get into it. The first two volumes create an amazing ride and I look forward to see where we go next.

Our grandson loved it

That this book is very professional for kids.

It almost feels like this is where manga and western comics meet up in the middle. The art in this book is sublime, attention to detail astounding and the lines crisp and clear. The print quality is very good and shows off the work nicely. In terms of the story, it's a continuation from the first book, of course, and so if you're looking to get into the story I'd recommend starting there. For those Who have read the first one, this sequel does not disappoint! It's equally fast-paced and as engaging as it is delightful. Be warned, however! It is expected to go on for around 10 volumes, so be prepared to sink some serious capital into this!

Compre el libro para un regalo, así que solo puedo opinar del envío, como siempre me ha pasado el envío llegó incluso antes de lo que me mencionaban de primero, dos días antes y eso es siempre una sorpresa muy grata, perfectamente cuidado, como siempre un gran servicio.
