I almost prefer to be introduced to a series through
graphic novel. It gives me a quick
insight as to whether or not I will like the books. House of Night is one of those series that I
was curious about but unable to fit into my reading schedule. This graphic novel was a great introduction.
Designed to accompany the books, this story gives a quick
introduction to the characters for those who are unfamiliar with them and a
deeper exploration into the mythology that runs through the series for those
already reading the books.
The story line wasn’t great but it was interesting
enough. Zoey Redbird has been made the
leader of the Dark Daughters but she doesn’t feel fit to rule. Through five lessons and historical stories,
she learns how to be a leader.
I, actually, liked Zoey.
I found her to be quite real and interesting. She had so many layers to her personality and
wasn’t perfect like so many characters in vampire books come out. I loved the mythology and the changing of the
stories to fit into vampire lore.
The art was quite cartoony which worked well for this
story. The colors were vibrant and
engaging. It would appeal to younger
audiences as well as more mature ones.
