Kahalachan's Reviews > Blood Work

An experimental novelty is the best way to describe this graphic novel. It wasn't bad, but I don't really want to see more Hollows stories done in this fashion. I also don't see this as a gateway to attract anyone to the rest of the series since this wouldn't be a good standalone book, which is a shame because the events in this book are chronologically early in the series.

There doesn't seem to be a lot of depth in the characters or story. You pretty much have to read the other books to understand the characters and allow this book to flush out some more details. The artwork is pretty good and kind of how you imagine the characters. The strengths and flaws of this book seem to be reflected in the experience of its contributors. Kim Harrison is new to graphic novels and the artists are quite experienced.

All in all, I did enjoy this a bit so I'm giving this 3 stars. It's not great but if you already invested a lot into the series already, it's a fairly quick read that adds a little bit more.
