The Hobbit: Graphic Novel by Chuck Dixon
3.0
Let me start by saying that, "The Hobbit" by J. R. R. Tolkien is not one of my favorite books so a five-star rating would be impossible for any adaptation of it.
That said, this graphic adaptation of The Hobbit does a solid job of sharing the story in this particular writing format. The voice of the narrator helps move the story along while filling in necessary details to the plot.
There is an overwhelming amount of text on most of the pages, making it a little tiresome to navigate compared to most graphic novels. It is understandable because there is a lot to cover in the original story, but it does make it tricky to read at times.
Overall, I think this is a great adaptation for fans of graphic novels. It would be a good way to introduce the story or to enjoy it in a different format.
