5.0 out of 5 stars Very dark, 15 Dec 2007

By	James Gibbon (London, England) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Manga Shakespeare: Richard III (Paperback)

This book is the best of a wonderful series of Shakespeare manga adaptations. Although the text is necessarily heavily edited, it is a good introduction to the story, a chance to get to know the plot and the characters involved. It reads like a gothic novel, with a very dark Richard getting his just deserts at the end. The splendid drawings convey the noir atmosphere perfectly, matching the action very well indeed. If only Shakespeare had been this compelling when I was at school.

5.0 out of 5 stars Inspiring artwork!, 13 Nov 2007

By	Pantalaimon (UK) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Manga Shakespeare: Richard III (Paperback)

Unlike others, I did not pick up Richard III specifically for reading/studying the Shakespeare content! For me, the artwork was what truly made this book stand out. Illustrated by British manga artist Patrick Warren, his gothic style lends itself to the darkness of the book. Richard III is dynamic and imaginative, with a mixture of horror and humour, and remains always interesting.

The characters were well designed and executed and page layouts were always kept compelling, with many of the pages being atmospheric and inspirational! I loved the sketchy style and bold graphics. Maybe not great for studying Shakespeare,(it could help to maybe understand on a basic level) but definately a feast for the eyes!

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic manga art, 8 Dec 2007

By	Brunswicker (UK) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Manga Shakespeare: Richard III (Paperback)

Come on, who buys this for their Shakespeare GCSE? Go see the uncut play if thats what you want. Get this for the artwork, its fantastic. Great drawings by Patrick Warren, dark and brooding and full of menace just like the subject theyre illustrating. Superb characterisation and a really edgy feel had me turning every page. A must buy!
