Fever Moon by Karen Marie Moning

5.0

This was a nice little treat! I had been so anxious to return to the wondrous Fever world, and reading this graphic novel was a perfect trip, just in time for the oncoming Iced. The art is amazing, really beautiful design, beyond all expectations. I mean, yeah, sure, Barrons was as I imagined he would be, the epitome of male perfection, but the true star of this novella is clearly Mac. She was drawn perfectly, just as gorgeous and vibrant as I imagined her in the books, and, as she is one of my all-time favourite heroines, seeing her come alive in full colour was beyond awesome.

The story was, to be honest, a little bizarre, or at least to me. There wasn't anything wrong with it, but it felt slightly taken out of context. It is meant to be an independent story taking place within Shadowfever, but, somehow, it doesn't fully match my very fresh memories of the atmosphere and pacing in Shadowfever. I don't know, maybe it's just me. This doesn't take anything away from its beauty, elegance and quality, but I just wanted to state this for the record. Does anyone feel remotely the same?

Anyway, I recommend this to all fans of the series, and to people who enjoy greatly drawn graphic novels. I also loved the written parts in which the author details certain aspects regarding her characters and her decision to start the "Fever" series. A nice addition to the expanding Fever world, one I will definitely re-read if only to gawk at the stunning graphic representation of my beloved Mac and Barrons.
