I was really apprehensive about reading this graphic novel as I have heard mixed things. The artwork is beautiful consisting of black, white, blue and red. The stories could have been better, they were definitely creepy and unique but just didn't leave me satisfied

As I've come to expect from Mosse, a slow start to this book was worth persevering with. Once the story was established it was enjoyable, if not slightly rushed at the end. The Cathar history is rich and intriguing, an educational, yet touching novel.
  
The final four Hornblower novels in this collection, comprising:

Flying Colours
The Commodore
Lord Hornblower
Hornblower in the West Indies

Nice way to round out the whole series (itself consisting of 3 multi-novel books: "The Young Hornblower", "Captain Hornblower, R.N", and now this)

Hard hitting book
An uncharacteristically sombre and serious graphic novel. This book tells the demise of Captain Marvel as cancer ravages his body, despite the universe's scientists trying to find a solution. Very touching book at times, albeit with a dated narrative style and tone.

Book Favorite

"This early 20th century novel about a music hall dancer, a performance artist of that time, who measures her freedom between relationship and touring has not aged at all. No one writes about relationships as perceptively as Colette and very few write as well."

Book Favorite

"This largely autobiographical novel has had deep meaning for me from the time that I first read it in the late ‘60s. It’s about a man coming to terms with who he is and the legacy that he wants to leave behind. It’s stunningly beautiful."
