I am a huge Tamora Pierce fan and especially love Kel! I was so excited to see that her story was being turned into a graphic novel. While of course some parts of the book don’t make it in, I think the most important parts of Kel’s story were kept.
I really love how Kel’s first adventure is portrayed. Beloved lines of dialogue will be recognizable to readers who have read the original book. The art was beautiful and designed with care. I hope that this book brings even more readers into the Tamora Pierce world and creates even more accessibility. I loved First Test and would highly recommend it to anyone!
Readers who enjoy strong characters determined to fight for what’s right, lovable characters, and adventure need to read this graphic novel. I can’t wait to see the story continue!
Thank you to Tamora Pierce, Random House Graphic, and Netgalley for a free ARC in exchange for an honest review.
