I am incredibly frustrated that I chose this to be the first new book to read in 2017, because as much as I wanted to like it I wound up very disappointed by the time I reached the final page. Obviously I had way too high expectations for an artist who had never worked with my beloved Gaiman before, but I seriously wanted to love this adaptation since “Troll Bridge” has always been one of the most memorable Gaiman short stories. What bothered me the most was that the art style didn’t seem to pair well with the story - it wasn’t realistic enough for my tastes, and seemed oddly childish (without actually being for children, since the story has very adult themes) without settling into a distinctive style. Even though the story is rather simplistic (and the adaptation reflects that just fine), I feel like the graphic adaptation could have benefited from a style that revels in visual simplicity while hiding the true darkness of the story - think Maurice Sendak circa Where the Wild Things Are or Dave McKean’s non-photographic work. Hopefully this book does not set the tone for future Neil Gaiman adaptations or for 2017 as a reading year... When I recently saw a review of this book from my Goodreads friend Spencer, I knew I had to have it. Only recently have I discovered the greatness that is Neil Gaiman,(through his Sandman series), and now I want to read everything he's written. Luckily, Dark Horse Comics approved my request through Edelweiss and last night I sat down to read it. I'm not one for YA, but I loved this book. The story is sweet, while at the same time, surprisingly dark. The illustrations, especially those of the troll himself, are absolutely gorgeous. Colleen Doran is the cartoonist/illustrator and she's done some work with Gaiman before on the Sandman series. Together, the two make an unstoppable team. Troll Bridge is a wonderful story and I highly recommend this graphic novel to everyone, both young and old alike!

The illustrations are brilliant.
A very powerful story, as one expects from Gaiman. ( )
