The Adventures of John Blake: Mystery of the Ghost Ship | 
pickA fun and quick read! An adventure in which you can think as much or as little as you'd like. I haven't read too many graphic novels so this was a new experience that I rather enjoyed. It feels much different than an illustrated book.

pickI brought Phillip Pullman‘s new graphic novel home to read, but of course the nine-year-old read it twice before I got to it. I think it‘s better suited to the middle school audience, but he did love it.
John Blake holds the key to a time-traveling ghost ship, and some have already killed trying to find it. This action adventure is a page-turning read. Im intrigued to see where the series leads.
pickThe first scene sets it up to seem scary. It wasn't scary, but it was full of adventure. This graphic novel sets up the characters and action nicely but leaves some unanswered questions. I love time travel, so I want to know more. It was an interesting start, and I think this will be a fun series!
so-soPhilip Pullmans first graphic novel is all over the place. This reads like a summary of many John Blake adventures. So I didn't really care for any of the characters in the book. Illustrations are quite good though.
