The concept of this book was intriguing. A guy starts to see another world when he gets shot in the head. Every time he falls asleep he wakes up in the other world. Both worlds depend on his choices. There are lots of weird undertones though that don't really make sense until you read the other two books.

Really.... unusual. While the premise was interesting, I felt completely disoriented for the entire book. Too bad.
Thomas Hunter is finds himself trapped between two different times, the current and the future. In which both time, the world is facing a possible destruction. The current world is facing a virus threat that will sweep the world's entire population. And in the future world where good and evil is clearly separated by a river that runs around the whole earth, the evil half or the Shaitaki is about to invade the good half.
It was really an interesting premise but the cardboard characters...more

Oddly spiritual while still maintaining an air of adventure and mystery.
I've never read a graphic novel before. I liked the story and the moving from one reality to the other, but I really didn't like the portrayal of the characters in their pictures. I guess I like making up my own visual interpretations in my mind.
Based on the novels of the circle trilogy, I found this graphic novel a bit difficult to follow. Although the plot is a good one, I don't believe it is written well in graphic form. I might have to pick up the novels and read them to compare.
very interesting and left me on the edge of my seat. I enjoy the character development, but some of the side characters are 2D which left me with much to want in that area.
Really.... unusual. While the premise was interesting, I felt completely disoriented for the entire book. Too bad.

Graphic novel version of Ted Dekker's Black. Picked it up at the library. Thomas looks so different than I imagined.
Perfect book to make into a graphic novel. Very similar to how I pictured it would be while reading the novel.
Not a huge graphic novel person. But it was fun and an interesting way to read such a great novel.
I think I'll give the books a try. They will probably read a little better.
If I could give it half star, I would. :)
If are thinking of reading this ---don't!
