review:
'Renee Stone Vol. 1: Murder in Abyssinia' by Birmant Julie with illustrations by Oubrerie Clement is a historical mystery graphic novel.
Renee Stone writes mystery novel, but finds herself in one in Ethiopia that involves missing artifacts and missing people. Her companions on the journey are a soldier, an archaeologist and another novelist. Motives twist and turn as the story goes.
I liked the concept of this more than the execution. I wanted Renee Stone to be a stronger character, but she is just kind of swept along for the ride. The character motivations constantly changing seemed confusing too. I don't understand how the protagonist would continue to trust people. The art and lettering were a bit on the weak side too. I did like the historical notes at the end, and I do believe some good research was done on this graphic novel.
I received a review copy of this graphic novel from Europe Comics and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this graphic novel.
