silverthane 's review for:
Ray Bradbury's Fahrenheit 451: The Authorized Adaptation
by Ray Bradbury
Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury is already one of my favourite books which I reviewed recently. I'm not going to re-write what I think about the original story as it would just be repetition.
This graphic novel is a very good interpretation and very faithful to the original book, the story is exactly the same and alot of Bradbury's dialogue is intact here. The artwork is amazing and very impressive. The book is thicker than I expected but I still finished it in less than a day.
Personally I wouldn't recommend just reading the graphic novel, I think the two books complement each other, but the reader should not be tempted just to read the graphic version as some of the power of the original is inevitably lost. I don't think its possible for a graphic novel to have the same punch as a novel. Readers should give Bradbury's original a go, it really is a very important book.
