5.0

𝗔𝗡 𝗢𝗨𝗧𝗕𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗞 𝗢𝗙 𝗪𝗜𝗧𝗖𝗛𝗖𝗥𝗔𝗙𝗧 is a chilling exploration of the Salem witch trials, rendered vividly in graphic novel form. Noyes skillfully reconstructs historical events, immersing readers in the terror and paranoia of the era. The realization that these were real people enduring unimaginable horrors adds a sobering layer to the narrative. While history may not be my forte, Noyes's meticulous research and compelling storytelling captivated my attention. Duffy's illustrations breathe life into the characters, evoking the palpable fear and hysteria of the time. As the events unfold, the graphic novel becomes an unsettling reminder of the dangers of unchecked hysteria and injustice. I eagerly anticipate future collaborations from this talented duo.
