Graphic adaptation of on eof my favourite Discworld books, which is set eras before the 'main' Discworld stories themselves.
I have to be honest: I didn't even know there was this adapatation of the story until I came across it in a local bookstory: having read it, I think I prefer this over the only other graphical take on the stories I had encountered before ([b:The Discworld Graphic Novels: The Colour of Magic & The Light Fantastic|2728900|The Discworld Graphic Novels The Colour of Magic & The Light Fantastic|Terry Pratchett|https://d2arxad8u2l0g7.cloudfront.net/books/1348432296s/2728900.jpg|2754534]) in that the artwork seems more vibrant, more what I would imagine the characters to be like.

Erika (17789 KP) rated Pamela; or, Virtue Rewarded in Books
Feb 1, 2020
This novel is commonly known as the first true English novel, as well as the first epistolary novel. I've taken numerous British and English Literature classes, but had not been introduced to this novel until I studied in England and took an English novel class taught by a German professor who learned English solely so he could read Shakespeare in the vernacular. I'm glad that this prof included this wonderful novel. It was a nice change from just assigning Jane Eyre and Great Expectations.
It's an interesting study on Pamela, and spawned so many great, satirical novels. This is definitely a must read if you like classic literature and enjoy reading the novels that shaped the literature of today.

This was really good. I never really thought I would be into reading graphic novels, but after reading this one, I find I kind of enjoy them. There fairly quick reads and they're always very interesting and different from what I normally read. I think I've become hooked and that's a good thing!

This one was so much better then the first and I enjoyed the first. This one moved faster and flowed better. The characters had so much spark and loved that things weren't easy for them. Rainforest novels are always interesting and fun to read. The adventure was amazing. Very good second part :)
