Weave Posted November 27, 2011 Posted November 27, 2011 (edited) Hi Everyone, how are you ALL doing? Some of you may or may not know that the Harper Connelly series by Charlaine Harris has been made into a graphic novel series (I just found out today! ) The first book in the series, 'Grave Sight ~ Part 1' was released on the 7th June 2011 ~ At the age of 15, Harper Connelly was struck by lightning, an event that gave her the ability to find the dead and see how they died. Since then, Harper's scratched out a living selling her services to anyone with a checkbook. It's not the best life, but it beats the alternative - at least until Harper and her brother Tolliver roll into Sarne, Arkansas and find themselves embroiled in a murder mystery! The second book in the series, 'Grave Sight ~ Part 2' is due for release on the 29th November 2011 ~ Harper Connelly finds dead people for a living, and helps friends and family gain closure by letting them finally put their loved ones to rest. Harper and her step-brother, Tolliver Lang, have just completed a job in Sarne, Arkansas, but that doesn''t mean their work is done. More people are turning up dead, and Harper might just be falling for the town''s deputy, a handsome, rugged man whose wife died under mysterious circumstances... Grave Sight Part 2 features 44-pages of story and art, with the balance consisting of bonus and behind-the-scenes material. The third book in the series, 'Grave Sight ~ Part 3' is due for release on the 13th March 2012 ~ Harper Connelly finds dead people for a living, but not everyone appreciates her special gift. In the stunning conclusion to this three-part series, Harper''s step-brother, Tolliver Lang, finds himself in trouble with the law while Harper struggles to clear his name. And then there''s the matter of a mysterious killer who seems to follow in Harper''s wake. Will Harper and Tolliver get out of Sarne, Arkansas in one piece, or will they be the killer''s next victims? Grave Sight Part 3 features 44-pages of story and art, with the balance consisting of bonus and behind-the-scenes material, as well as an extended interview with Charlaine. I am a BIG fan of the Harper Connelly series and I was disappointed that Charlaine Harris ended the series at book 4. I am really excited about the graphic novels. What do you all think?

Abcinthia Posted November 29, 2011 Posted November 29, 2011 I also was really disapointed it came to an end. I probably enjoyed the Harper Connelly series slightly more than the Sookie Stackhouse series. I'm not sure if I would buy the graphic novel. I might have to check it out in the bookshop first and see what I think about it. Quote

I felt the same about the Harper Connelly series, as much as I liked Sookie, I thought there was more to Harper, if you do check out the graphic novel, let us know. Quote
