The Gates by John Connolly

4.0

John Connolly has to be one of my favourite authors. His ability to write original characters and to bring them into unusual but enjoyable circumstances, is unparalleled.

The Gates follows a little boy named Samuel and his dog. After they accidentally see something that they shouldn't (namely a group of local adults dabbling in the dark arts and accidentally opening the gates of hell), forces of evil begin a hunt to destroy Samuel. Samuel must find a way to stop the gates of hell from opening and unleashing unspeakable terrors on the world. Unfortunately, nobody believes him and therefore, no one will help him. It's then left to Samuel to stop the apocalypse.

Funny, delightful and well written. I didn't know what to expect when I first picked up this book, but I was pleasantly surprised when I couldn't put it down.

A great and fun read!

AMAZING! One of my favourite graphic novels ever. What great art and great writing. Immediately went out and picked up everything else Ed Brubaker after this.
