Book Review: Prince of Persia: The Graphic Novel

Prince of Persia: The Graphic Novel

You probably know Prince of Persia as the video game. I've not played the game before so I can't say if this graphic novel follows the game plot.

I find the story a bit confusing as there are two stories that cuts into each other frequently. These stories happen in different time periods and the main character looks roughly the same. The use of different colour tones to differentiate the stories aren't good enough. Each story on its own seems alright but when they are weaved together, it becomes hard to follow.

There's some violence so it's probably not suitable for kids.

The art by Alex Puvilland is pretty alright except that the main characters are drawn too much alike.

I probably won't recommend it unless you can browse through it before buying. That way you'll immediately know if you like it. The photos I have below don't tell the story, unfortunately.
