Wow! This book is just so great. I was trying to savor the pictures and go slowly, but the story is so compelling and amazingly true I rushed threw. Going to take some tie to go back and really appreciate the art work.

I enjoyed this graphic novel immensely, the graphic representations of blindness and how it would feel to experience blindness were beautiful. Based on a true story which involves mystery, coming of age, true crime, and philosophy. I don't want to give anything away just read it!

4.5 stars. Blair's illustrations are beautiful and the story is riveting. Having read "For the Thrill of it," I found this book fascinating in terms of what is redeemable within even the worst of humanity. This is the best sort of graphic novel; one where either the art or story could stand in their own, but work together so brilliantly.

This an epic story of crime, fathers and sons, secrets, and Dante’s Inferno. I think it’s destined to be one of the classic graphic novels.
