I haven't read The Alchemist in it's original form. I've been meaning to though (everyone says that). I wasn't entirely scared of spoilers like usual, mostly because graphic novels don't make that much of an impact on me if it's an adaptation. From flipping through the pages quickly, I didn't have high standards for it and it delivered. The art was decent, I'm not so used to typical heavily American styled comics. It was weird to get through, plus it was really text heavy. It had a nice tale but I have a feeling it would be better as a novel.
