For anyone who doesn't know, a graphic novel is like a comic book, but... it's a novel. DJ has stated that The Merchant of Death will be published as a graphic novel on the same day Raven Rise is published--May 20th, 2008. From the offical Pendragon website:
So, if there are any Pendragon fans here, I'd like to know what you think of this. I, personally, think it's great. |

Pinned I haven't read the Pendragon books yet, but I think making graphic novels widens the audience a bit, say to younger readers and those who don't like to read at all. That way the ycan enjoy the story and maybe look forward to more. |

The only thing that concerns me is that I think it would be a little... um... disturbing at the scene where the quig expoldes and is described as Hamburger Helper. |

I don't like the idea of a Graphic Novel, but it will attract younger readers. It's been a while since I've read the first book, but he will surely make more graphic novels. *Spoiler Warning for series* In the 6th I wouldn't like to see the part of Loor dying. But then she comes back to life. Or the part in The Pilgrims of Rayne when Bobby is attacted by the Quig-bees. |

Bobbys OK, but I hate how they drew Loor's hair! Why does she look like that? Well, mabe as she gets older, they will make her hair a little better, it just bugs me,.. |
