Apparently, looking at the backside of the book and the prices and accolades, the Lunar Chronicles series are (or were?) a thing. Before finding this #GraphicNovel in our public library, I had not heard about it. But it could be that I'm not necessarily the audience aimed for.

This graphic novel apparently takes place after the happenings in the original five books. It's told from the perspective of an android, although not entirely consistently. In short, it's about - what they call - wolf-hybrid soldiers threatening peace on earth, and between the moon and earth, this aforementioned android going after them, and a subset of these soldiers then going after her friends (the main characters of the first five books).

Not a big fan on the graphic art. A lot looks the same, like the characters. The monochrome style probably doesn't help either. Although a style like that can add to the style of a book; just not here, it seems. Story-wise, everything sounds rather simplistic and I can't shed the feeling that I'm reading a book written for teenagers. Hence my earlier comment about me not being the intended audience. I might ask the library to move these to the young adult or teenager section. All in all, likable, but superficial.

The idea of the original books, being science fictional twists on classic #FairyTales does sound intriguing, putting the female protagonists forward as strong women instead of passive bystanders. Perhaps I'll have a look whether I can find the first of these.
