Recenzje

"Brilliant. . . . This rip-roaring graphic retelling of the Aldous Huxley classic brings to mind Fritz Lang, Spielberg and vintage comics. . . . This is a book that will keep your bedside light burning long into the night." - The Guardian

"This smart graphic adaptation is fully in service to Huxley's story-and what a story it turns out to be, with sex, adventure, violence, love, tragedy, and vibrant characters woven into a philosophical treatise on God and the meaning of life with Shakespeare thrown in for good measure. . . . Fordham puts his own creativity into the designs. . . . Sleekness abounds. . . . It is a masterful treatment." - The Comics Journal
