My absolute favorite comic. One of my favorite things ever really. I love it so much. I knew i was gonna love it when i first saw Phone bone looking all cartoony in that cover with his forest surroundings drawn so well as if it's a serious comic. It's the combination of the epic yet cartoon feel. Just like it was described as a crossover between looney tunes or mickey mouse and LoTR. I always wanted to read something like it. So full of adventure and charm and engaging with wonderful drawing and characters and hilarious at times. So much love for Bone.
Very clever, and very funny. In this book, Lydia Adamson delivers some truly wonderful characters--and by "characters" I mean unusual, one-of-a-kind, never-to-be-duplicated weirdos. The protagonist, Alice Nestleton, is a cynical yet oddly fanciful forty-something with a love of cats and a disregard for how a murder investigation "should" run. Tony Basilio, Alice's ex-lover, defies all explanations with his antics. Alice's cats, Bushy and Pancho, aren't really main players, but they deserve mention anyway. I was honestly reminded of my own cat as I read about them. The big case is certainly a big one, all right. Former ballet star, Peter Dobrynin, was found shot to death at Lincoln Center on Christmas Eve, and everyone's a suspect. When Alice's friend Lucia is arrested, Alice is called in to clear her name. And I can tell you right now, the resolution is not what you'd expect. The more I think about it, the more I really loved this book. It was a good mystery with great characters, priceless one-liners, a curve ball of an ending...I just might have to read the other books in the series!
I must have read this book 12 million times in elementary school. My copy was literally falling apart.
