Cyril Pedrosa drawn as if they were told to imitate Silvia Ziche Craig Thompson. Effects are often very convincing, primarily in the daytime scenes. The world around is a land of fairy round trees, hills, meadows, houses that distort to follow the gaze of the narrator, wiry and women who seem Omoni large rocks on which the wind and the tragedies that can not dashed. But everything changes. Come the three shadows. The atmosphere is full of omens, the player will fly over the pages, wondering what to bring and what the three hooded knights adventure (as well as dark fate ) awaits the protagonist. Then here it is: the escape. With the start of the race against the inevitable story seemed to me to sit, normalize, trivialize. The harbinger of wonderful things lurking dissolves into a long sea voyage without destination, the three mysterious riders show up for what was expected of principle, without surprises, too obvious a metaphor that does not know how to reserve the least surprise. It designs, having to describe the anguish and the dark night of the escape, they become at times ( intentionally, of course, but ) too confused.
The final strand of the secondary with the thief of souls seemed superfluous, because it is a derivation in a hitherto monolithic story, focusing on parent-child pair ( if the story had actually been picaresque, as among other things a little rashly promises to cover the ribs, then yes, there would be room for derivations and figures outline ) .
"Three Shadows" is a graphic novel discreet, that you read, but that does not differ from a final average, easily forgettable. Obviously this is my personal opinion: here you can find a completely different opinion. And, by the way (but then not so ), the book has been awarded 2008 edition Angouleme festival ( to be precise, is among the " essentiels " ).
