03.Jun.2009 Bone Vol 3: Eyes of the Storm by Jeff Smith
I read my first Bone (Out from Boneville) sometime last year, which I gave a more lengthy review. I didn’t review the 2nd one (The Great Cow Race), because I wasn’t sure how to review a series without giving spoilers. But heck, I’ll review this one and the next ones (I’m up to Vol 5 now), since I like them so much I think they deserve some screen time :P
Eyes of the Storm is the last in the first trilogy (there are 3 trilogies in total and 9 volumes). What’s with the trilogy? Why the need to divide them into groups of three? From what I gather at the end of the book, the first trilogy might be all about fun introduction of characters and storyline. At the end of the third volume, a lot of secrets are out regarding Thorn and Grandma Ben, and I’m guessing it’s going to get darker from this point on.
I gave a 4 stars for the 1st and 2nd Bone and I thought I would for the rest of the series. But I think I’ll give more from this volume on. The more I read Bone the more I like them.
ps: I love it when the two rat creatures are having conversation. They’re so cute. Not all of them. Just the two that always get the spotlight.
