Flight, Volume One

If I'm disappointed is my own fault for not informing myself before buying the book! I thought this book was going to be about one character "the one on the cover" traveling around the world, but it isn't; more over because of the beautiful cover I was expecting it to be a mixture between Howl's Moving Castle and Secrets of Kells or something similar. Flight is a collection of short stories not related one to another, you may find more than one chapter of some stories within on volume. There are lots of different drawing styles and all of then are good, plus the stories are awesome my favorite was "The Bowl". If you wanna check out some previews you can go to this link http://www.flightcomics.com/preview.htm I'm not going to take stars away because the book was excellent and because I should had looked up reviews for the book before buying it.

I bought this for my 8 yr old sons birthday not really knowing much about. I thought it was a full length graphic novel but it turned out to be a collection of short stories.Once I looked through it I realized the stories/themes were quite grown up and I wasn't sure if my son would 'get' many of the stories. No matter, my son loved it and the artwork is incredible. Still not sure how much he understood but he loved it so much he wanted the second one for Christmas.I call these his special graphic novel books in the hope he takes good care of them, I'm sure they'll be appreciated for years to come.

This is a great collection from many artist, but it wasn't what I was expecting. That's my fault for not reading up before I purchased it.

variety of art and stories all collected in one book, there is 8 volumes so far and all are wonderful. Some stories are strange and art in others is flat, but majority of tales are amazing, deep, emotional, and entertaining.

My son lost interest since each story is so brief. He didn't really grasp the simplicity, and as much as I wanted to, I honestly didn't either. Artwork is wonderful and it's a good addition to the shelf, but it's not as enjoyable as other books out there.

The stories and artwork in this book are beautiful and captivating. Each story is really a journey into the imagination of its author, so each story is unique and brilliant in its own way. As someone who has never really been into comics or comic books this was a great introduction into the world of graphic novels and their awesomeness.

My son discovered Kazu Kibuishi through his Amulet series. This series is awesome too. He's in second grade and he can't put the books down. Highly recommend for the reluctant reader.
