KEV67 Posted November 14 Posted November 14 (edited) Alan Moore is about the greatest graphic novel writer ever. Before him, I think they were just called comics. Therefore, I was interested to start reading a novel I'd seen he had written called The Great When. It had a sort of prologue, which was so crummy I thought I would only give it one more chapter's chance. However, the official first chapter is not too bad. I will have to see how it goes. The blurb on the back made it sound a bit like a book by China Mieville called The City & The City. Edited November 14 by KEV67 Quote
KEV67 Posted 9 hours ago Author Posted 9 hours ago About another 50 pages to go. It is alright. I would say it is more fantasy than science fiction and not as good as his best graphic novel work. That is my opinion anyway. It is not as intellectual or as thought-provoking as the best sci-fi. It is more of a sci-fi / fantasy / esoteric yarn. It does have engaging characters. This looks like the first of a series. Quote
