Review

Praise for the BONE series:

New York Times Bestseller

USA Today Bestseller

TIME magazine Top Ten Graphic Novel

★ "This is first-class kid lit: exciting, funny, scary, and resonant enough that it will stick with readers for a long time." -- Publishers Weekly, starred review

"A true accomplishment. Not only is it a terrific graphic-novel series, but it's a superb example of storytelling." -- School Library Journal

"BONE is storytelling at its best, full of endearing, flawed characters whose adventures run the gamut from hilarious whimsy to thrilling drama." -- Entertainment Weekly

"Spectacular." -- SPIN magazine

“Jeff Smith is one of the great pioneers of the modern all-ages graphic novel. Without BONE, much of our current library would not exist. Ask any up-and-coming graphic novelist which books inspired them, and BONE will often be mentioned at the top of their list. It definitely sits at the top of mine." -- Kazu Kibuishi, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Amulet

    I love this series and I used to have all the books as a kid until I stupidly sold them for $2 per book. As a kid that’s a lot of money but looking back I wish I had kept them. But I’m glad I was able to find them here. Honestly this series is what got me into reading. I never liked reading until it read Bone. Although it’s a comic book it got me into reading novels. I’d definitely recommend this book to anyone, kid or adult for a fun and adventurous read. The writing really makes the different characters voices come to life and wow I just love these books. So nostalgic and just as I remember. Can’t wait to finish book 1 so I can start the rest of the books.

    I managed to find 6 of the 9 books in the series locally second hand, and purchased the other 3 new through 鶹. These are classic graphic novels for any fan. May be a bit mature for the really young ones, great for a 10 to 14 year old. There are references to smoking and gambling as you progress through the series.

    This was good! I had never heard of it before finding it during a search for anything bone related under books. I am glad to have found it and am even more pleased to read it.

    Bone is a series of comics, and this is the first volume. It is ceeated by the talented Jeff Smith and is about 3 bones from bBoneville that get lost in another land after getting banished.

    What a fun graphic novel. It's easy to read, funny, and just a blast to read in general.

    I can't wait to read the next one.

    The characters include one sassy badass red dragon.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Something Truly Special
    Reviewed in the United States on August 6, 2010
    Verified Purchase
    Jeff Smith's Bone is a wonderful adventure story that can be enjoyed by all ages. Many of its characters are cartoonish in both personality and appearance, but they are still easy to root for and care about. This volume manages to tell a compelling story and weave interesting mysteries while still filling the story with great humor bits and introducing several compelling mysteries that will want to make you read the next volume as soon as possible.

    This version of Bone has been colorized, and it looks wonderful. While reading it, it is hard to imagine that it was once in simple black and white. Although it is slightly larger than a typical book, it is still small enough to carry around and can easily fit into a purse or a backpack.

    I would highly recommend introducing Bone to reluctant readers. Although it is a comic rather than a novel, the writing is top notch, and its story should be able to ignite a love of reading in many children. One word of warning: because Bone is highly addictive, you probably won't want to stop at just one volume. Be prepared to shell out for the rest of the series after getting this one.
