es graciosillo y me cae bien bone, pero no me apetece tener que gastarme 17 euros en cada volumen para poder terminar de leer la historia. si alguna vez la termino, será en inglés...

Nice little book. Good for young adults. Always interesting to be told a story from the POV of an animal. A better example IMO would be [b:The Art of Racing in the Rain|3153910|The Art of Racing in the Rain|Garth Stein|http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1327429384s/3153910.jpg|3175590] On a side note: The movie War Horse was excellent.

Everything about this book is amazing: characters, plot, the art, dialogue I haven't been this excited to start a series in a while.

This is one weird comic and thus right up my alley.

I picked up this book based solely on Alastair Reynolds insane props:
"I owe an equally obvious debt to Bruce Sterling, whose 'Shaper/Mechanist' sequence blew my mind on several levels. Sterling's future history, even though it consists of only a single novel and a handful of stories, still feels utterly plausible to me twenty years after I first encountered it. Part of me wishes Sterling would write more 'Shaper/Mechanist' stories; another part of me admires him precisely for not doing so. Read Schismatrix if you haven't already done so: it will melt your face."
That is exactly what it did too, melt my face. I still remember when I finished it, I honestly sat there for 30 minutes utterly stunned by what I had just read. This isn't typical cyberpunk either, but it was written a year after Nueromancer and was also one of the books that has heavily influenced and defined what cyberpunk has become. Schismatrix Plus is everything ever written about the 'Shaper/Mechanist' Universe. It includes every short story as well as the full length novel Schismatrix, what's more is that it is all arranged in the way the Sterling intended it to be read. It is difficult, abstract, and intense beyond anything I could have imagined, but when you finish, you will utterly agree with Reynolds description.

The 55 Bone comics were compiled into 9 books. Smith creates a very strange world by mashing up comic book conventions, such as buffoon relatives, with fantasy elements, such as medieval worlds and monsters. The first volume is clearly a set-up for an epic adventure.

I don't really get Bone. I mean, what are the bones? They're like these doughy-shaped people who live in a world with humans, dragons, rat creatures (who, by the way, don't really look very much like rats), talking possums, giant talking bugs, and some kind of super-evil villain who wears a hood like the Emperor from Star Wars. It's just inexplicably weird.
But it's also high quality fantasy. The characters are well-drawn, the jokes work, the action flows, the world is interesting... Even though I'm perplexed by it, I want to read more. In fat, I can't believe I only bought volume 1. When you finish volume 1, you're going to want to read volume 2 immediately.
