I feel like this review is going to be virtually identical to what I’ve already written for the first three volumes in the series. So let’s just break it down to its component parts:
1. Daniel Abraham has done a fantastic job as an adapter of this series. Everything is clear and exciting and he gets all the most important bits in.
2. Tommy Patterson is a competent artist but I absolutely do not like his style.
3. I hate the way all the faces are in this series. Everyone looks the same and looks mean.
Aaaaaand, that’s pretty much it.
If they decide to adapt the other A Song of Ice and Fire books into graphic novels, I don’t know if I will be reading them. If Daniel Abraham adapts them again, I probably will. If it’s someone else, I don’t know. If Tommy Patterson passes the torch to someone else, I probably will also. Mostly I just want to re-read the series again from the beginning because I have a sickness.
