不错，很好的书。买了一套
彩叶硬质纸质的漫画书，连续讲了护身符的故事。漫画画法可以。儿子还没看完。
Thanks to an advance reader copy from Netgalley that was surprisingly easy to obtain, I was finally able to get the juice on the long-awaited sixth book in the Amulet series, Escape From Lucien. Now I believe I did not get the full experience of this volume, as only the first 50 pages were in color, but I definitely intend on purchasing the final product to soak in more of the series' fantastic visuals.
Now before I delved into this book, I was convinced that the series would at least require two or three more volumes to conclude the story, but the way Kazu managed to wrap up important plot details exceeded me this time around. We get to see a rather touching conclusion to Max's story arc, and discover more about the two malevolent forces in this story, the Voice and the Elf King. The new book also marks the return of the old Resistance members who fled from the city of Kanalis in The Stonekeeper's Curse, including Balan and Doctor Weston.
There's a lot more focus on Navin this time around, which I think was necessary and provided him with some needed development. His friendship with Alyson is also explored, but thankfully, Kazu includes no cheesy child romance between the two. There are a few new faces as well. There's an elf woman named Riva, the mayor of Lucien, who is working on a mission to help bring the citizens of her city to safety, as creatures referred to as "Dark scouts" (a throwback to an earlier volume) begin to envelop their refuge. Her adviser, an old and lovable robot named General Pil, also aids Navin and Aly in their mission. There are also two new, young recruits named Robert and Trisha whose roles in the series are ambiguous at the moment.
Unlike the previous book (Prince of the Elves), which I believed was a transition that focused more on informing us readers about characters' pasts and the abilities of the stone, we got to see a definitive progression in the ongoing conflict between the elves and humans, and a climactic battle seems to be in the works for the next volume. This is not a book that I suggest you jump into without having read any of the previous entries, as some parts may be confusing and/or less effective. I have already invested so much into this series, so I will definitely be looking forward to more.
I (a literature loving parent) had difficulty instilling an appreciation for books and reading in my son until discovering his appreciation (accompanied with pickiness) in graphic novels. I found myself delighted and moved by Kibuishi's The Arrival, which led to my purchase of this series for my son along with Flight. My son gobbles them whole and asks for more. "Is there a sixth book? A seventh?" The seventh is on pre-order. I'm certain there will be a dark cloud over the house until my 9-year-old can get his hands on the ones that follow.
The book was awesome I just hope that they release more books and a book 7,8,9 and so on it is real interesting and I want to keep reading. I really enjoy it. I would really be frustrated if they just leave it at book 6 with no ending cause you read the book they are about to fix the problem almost to the most exciting part and then it ends. But I am sure they won't just leave it at book 6 at least I hope I am sure.
our son that recently turned 10 got one of the Amulet books at the library and was instantly HOOKED! he could not get enough of the series. we are slowly ordering the entire set and he will read cover to cover in ONE DAY!
excellent books! great for the imagination.
