This
was my first foray into the world of graphic novels, and I'm not sure it's
the genre for me. I chose to read this book because I am a huge fan of
Gabaldon's Outlander series, on which this graphic novel is based. However, I
feel that the limitations of the genre took away from the story. Outlander is
an epic tale full of rich narrative, which graphic novels intrinsically lack.
This boiled-down version of the story did not pack any of the emotional punch
that the original novel does (although I did enjoy the illustrations). Fans
of graphic novels may enjoy this book more than I did.
