2,5/5. More of a inspiration book or how to develop your own inspiration then drawing technique, there is that too but not that much and not enough in my opinion for a «How to Draw» kind of book. Not bad, the inspiration part, showing where to start, from something you knew, something real and turn it into a monster/creature is good, but enough to make the book worth it...? Not so sure!

Je m’attendais à un peu plus, mais tout de même un excellent livre. La mythologie Viking y est ici raconté sous formes de mythes, mais qui se «suivent», il y a une réelle chronologie et une succession d’évènements qui s’enchainent d’un mythe à l’autre. J’ai adoré les 2-3 premiers et les 2-3 derniers, un peu plus terne pour ceux du milieu à mon avis. On y découvre la fondation du monde, la création des hommes/femmes, comment Thor à obtenu son marteau, l’apocalypse, etc. Par leurs mythes on reconnaît les valeurs et la vision du monde des Vikings et c’est ce qui rend le tout très intéressant. Le tout est écrit dans une langue très accessible et je crois que l’auteur à fait un bon travail pour réunir, traduire/réécrire et nous présenter ces mythes. Si vous vous intéressez aux Vikings et à leurs cultures, ce livre vaut la peine! Si vous voulez le lire simplement pour lire des «nouvelles Vikings», je suis moins certain…

I like the style, the settings, the mythology and the adventure look promising enough. Unfortunately the storyline evolution was way too slow for me. If you enjoy slow pace comic book this might be worth looking into ii, because it was intriguing, but not my style. Personal appreciation 2/5, potential 3,5/5, maybe 4, I will go with a fair 3/5.

Certainly the best in the serie until now. More action, more magic, and more serious one. The story also a bit darker with the dementors and azkaban, so I really enjoy it! I hope it keep going that way!

Really good reread of Harry Potter #3. Interesting new and important characters are introduce in this one! I enjoy it... again!

3,5/5. Un roman qui m’a malheureusement laissé sur mon appétit. La prémisse est terriblement intéressante et au début on l’exploite bien, mais il s’en suit une série d’aventure et de rebondissement étranges, qui m’ont longtemps laissé penser qu’il se cachait une «twist», un «punch» derrière le tout, mais finalement non, tout cela pour bien peu. Le livre aborde des sujets forts intéressants tels que la liberté vs sécurité, les relations de couple, la sociologie, la confiance et bien d’autres. Par cotre, on reste toujours en surface et l’on ne va pas au bout des choses. Je m’attendais à plus de ce livre, connaissant et appréciant son auteure. Un peu déçu!

2,5/5. A bit funny, a bit instructive, a bit of many thing but too few to make it great. The art was a bit sketchy for me and the story didn’t bring something unique enough to make it stand out. An average book, which is worth reading but that isn’t a must by any mean!

A good book to help children learn about animal while reading an interesting story. I also like the idea of presenting entertaining activity to do with your kids and putting them simply in the story. Simple enough but well done in every aspect. Good job!

I didn’t like this book at all. For me it was a generous 2/5. That being said, I totally see the potential for younger reader. It was an easy, colorful and fun origin story of Superman. It is nothing out of a super-hero comic, but it’s more of a kid cartoon involving teen Clark. Can be good to introduce a new generation to superman. Like I said, good for kids but not sure the old school comic book veteran like myself will find much in it. Potential for kid 4/5, I will go with an average of 3/5.

Probably my favorite of those recent cartoons based on super-heroes book for kids I read. This one also uses the cartoon style, but it uses the doodle style and the dairy as well. Mixed of style to present us the Swamp Thing has a teen. The various styles allow the book to present more content and keep the reader more into it, more dynamic. It has humor, cool artwork and a good enough story. Better than expected after reading Superman of Smallville and DC Super Hero Girls: At Metropolis High.
