I adored the short story version is all it’s chilling glory. The graphic novel and audiobook are even better! The audiobook team really deserved that Audie award. Wonderful acting and perfect foley! The graphic novel is beautifully illustrated by Dani Pendergast. I love seeing all the character’s facial expressions. Even if you’ve read the original short story, be sure to check out this iteration!

I’ve had Shadow and Bone on my radar for a while, so I was excited to see a graphic novel adaptation of the prequel. Eryk is a compelling character.
