A return to the enthralling world of BONE with book one in this gripping spin-off novel trilogy, illustrated in four-color!
Twelve-year-old Tom Elm is just an ordinary turnip farmer from the Valley, but he's always felt destined for something bigger. So when he discovers everyone in his village is asleep and plagued by nightmares, he assembles a band of unlikely heroes. They must fight to preserve the Spark--a divine light born at the core of a vast, dark nothingness called the Nacht. The Nacht is trying to permeate the Waking World with nightmares of the Dreaming, and it's Tom's mission to defeat the Nacht and its most loyal follower, the Constable. If he fails, his family--and everyone--might never wake up again.

Loved this continuation of my favorite comics! Jumping back into this world with full force and loving the whimsical but well thought out adventure it takes me on! Nothing but praise!i didn't really like the book
I loved it it was amazing
Just so people are aware...this isn't really a graphic novel, it's more like an illustrated book set in the Bone universe. We come back to the Valley and while things are better...an ancient enemy has awoken. A dragon named Nacht has invaded the Dreaming, taken it over, and is now threatening the waking world as well. Queen Thorn has already fallen victim to this enemy and Gran'ma Ben isn't feeling to hot herself. Who will stop Nacht? The Dreaming has an answer and has called upon young Tom Elm,
What a tough review to write. Just like every one else reading this book, Im a big fan of Jeff Smiths epic tale Bone. So seeing this book got me excited. Surely this will be awesome fun just like every other Bone short story. But sadly, it is not. I can boil it down to one thing- the absence of humor. I can tell theres attempts made at jokes but they are nothing like the masterfully timed, expressive laughs that breath life throughout the original graphic novel. Even Jeff Smiths illustrations in
Mostly harmless, and unfortunately has the vague whiff of being forgettable--which is a real shame when you compare it to the original (fantastic, unforgettable) graphic novels. It's obviously aimed at a younger audience, but then, so was the original Bone, and it managed to be something unique at the same time. (Though like Harry Potter, Bone tackles more serious themes as it goes on, almost as if it's growing up with its audience. Maybe this series does too, but...I've got no interest in
The author has a good grasp of the Bone universe and I laughed a number of times. I look forward to the next in the series.
