Kazu KibuishiSupernova: A Graphic Novel (Amulet #8) (8)

Love it

A mi hijo le encanta este libro

My son is reading the series and is excited to read this one.

This is the eighth volume in the Amulet graphic novel series. The illustration remains amazing and the story makes some good progress too. I continue to be impressed with how well done this graphic novel series is.In this volume Emily struggles to gain control of her Amulet and escape the Void. Meanwhile Trellis is trying to take his place as rightful king of the Elves. Navin goes to Lighthouse One and leaves on a mission to help protect the worlds against the Shadow forces.The story is moving a bit slow and it jumps between a lot of people and places in this book. However, I am still really enjoying it. At some point I would like to sit down and read all these volumes back to back. Since these books seem to be coming out at the rate of a volume every other year it would be great to have a “story thus far” in the front of these books.There was quite a bit of character development in this series, despite all the jumping around. It was great to see what a force Emily is becoming, and there were some interesting twists around her character in here.Overall this is another great volume in this top notch fantasy graphic novel series. There is only one more volume in this series and I am eager to see how it wraps up!

My grandson requested this book for Christmas so I had to make sure it was suitable for a 10 YO boy by reading it first, and I found the plot and themes very mature for a YA book. There are multiple versions of the main character at different stages of life, characters having questions of good and evil about other characters, and all conducted with vocabulary suited for a YA readership. If the other books in the series are of the same quality as this, I'm a fan.

Okay so I love this book series but when I was reading the eighth one when I was getting to the end the bottom started sticking together so I tried gently pulling it apart but it cause the bottom part to rip or become thin

My daughter loves this book

We pre-purchased the book because our 10yr old has read each book in the series. When we got the notice that the book would be delivered, he couldn't wait to get it. Once it arrived he ripped open the package then ran to his room to read it. He was done in a day... then all of his friends at school, who saw him reading it, wanted to borrow it.I do have to say, we are fairly avid Anime fans and have got our son hooked on thing like: Totoro, Ponyo (along with other Studio Ghibli titles), Log Horizon, SAO, Magus Bride, etc.; as well as on some of the Manga. I really can't say enough about this series, which I've also read. The world that Kazu Kibuishi crafts is extremely interesting. The message of perseverance after a loss, the importance of family, trusting people of all races, and finding the power within us is a great one for kids and adults. Some parts are are a little dark but not really frightening for younger kids. The story keeps you interested to the last page, then wanting more.

Thank you.

My daughter just loved Emily’s story. She can’t wait for the final book

Amulet book series drives you through the action and really groundbreaking storyline with so much of beautiful visuals in it. Also thanks to Amazon for perfect delivery.

El trauma actual en la biblioteca donde trabajo. No ha habido momento en que este ejemplar esté más de dos días en la biblioteca. La historia es envolvente; los escenarios, las viñetas, los argumentos; hasta ahora uno de los mejores cómics que he leído.

8 year old dyslexic daughter goes mad for these graphic novel books - there is a bit of a craze in her school and she and all her class mates seem to really enjoy these. Lovely to see her enthusiastic about a book.
