Title: The Golden Compass Graphic Novel, Vol. 1
Series: His Dark Materials
Author: Philip Pullman, Clément Oubrerie, and Stéphanie Melchior-Durand
Published: 2015
Pages: 80
Pullman’s ‘His Dark Materials’ trilogy has long been a favourite of mine so I quite eagerly anticipated getting my hands on the graphic novel... but, much like the film, I felt it fell flat of it’s potential. It’s not that it is a ‘bad’ graphic novel - just that it pales it comparison. The richness and beauty of the prose has been stripped away in favour of simplicity in language and art.
