    You don't have to love comic books to enjoy these graphic novels. They are novels, the story is written by Joe Hill (Stephen King's son) and is an amazing, creepy tale of a house with many magical keys that lead to some pretty horrible things. the art is amazing, you will grow to like these characters. It is now complete and you can read it all
  • Amazing

    Best graphic novel I've read in years. Awesomely addictive. As soon as you start to read this novel you get sucked into the characters and their story. Love the artwork it fits the story perfectly. I could go on for days about all the great things about this GN it's amazing just read it and love it.

    I didn't realize what I was buying. I had heard the name before and a buzz about a TV show. This went beyond my expectations, a pleasant surprise. It would benefit readers though if there were a message telling the reader to double tap the page to fit it in portrait mode
  • It is a truly great series, but....

    Here is the problem: even reading in landscape mode, the type is too small to be read comfortably because the iPad is trying to display 2 pages at once. If you bump up the page size, you lose that wonderful composition of the art. I am hopeful to someday read graphics on an e-reader but for now, buy the paper versions , they are extremely well-written and beautifully illustrated.
