3,5 🌟
War ganz süß . Der Zeichenstil war echt niedlich. Das Pacing war aber leider viel zu schnell. Irgendwie hat mich die Story ein bisschen an die alten Disney Filmen erinnert

[Jules · Rating 3 out of 5]

Le dessin est sublime mais je trouve le scénario un peu trop nébuleux et rapide.

[Ana · Rating 4 out of 5]

Quatro estrelas, sobretudo pelos desenhos, que são lindíssimos. A história ainda édifícil de avaliar, porque este é o primeiro volume de uma série de dois - que por sinal acaba em grande suspense, deixando-me em pulgas para ler o próximo. O problema é que, tanto quanto sei, ainda não foi publicado!

Wunderschöne Graphic-Novel mit einer wahren Wunderwelt. Ich kann es kaum erwarten, Band II in die Finger zu bekommen.

Dessins absolument magnifiques, palette de couleur parfaite (beaucoup de nature au rendez-vous); un joli voyage dans un monde féérique, un monde dont on ne saisit pas tout, ce qui contibue au charme.

Så fint illustrerad men storyn hade för många hål.

La vicenda in sé è piuttosto prevedibile, ma il resto è cosí forte da riuscire a compensare

I don't even know where to begin. The illustration of the story alone was beautiful. Each piece of the story unraveled most beautifully, depicting the journey of "Twig" with Wolf at her side. I was literally in awe of the illustration and the physical emotions depicted of the characters as the truth was told of Twig's story.

When I first began the story, it reminded me of a mix between Snow White and Thumbelina. It's a story of a character being lost and trying to find out where they came from, taking a journey to find the truth. The way Frederic depicted the story of 'Twig' and their journey from being lost to finding out their truth was absolutely breathtaking. The colors were so pleasant to see on screen, and each character brought the story and truth together to the beautifully wrapped up ending. Were tears shed at the end? Yes. I won't deny that.

I highly recommend this beautiful graphic novel for those of you who want to go on a journey to discover the truth, with ups and downs, raw emotions, and beautifully depicted illustrations. Each page was beautifully displayed, and the story itself was something I wish I could put into words.

Sprietje integraal in de Nederlandstalige uitgave van Dark Dragon books. Een elf-achtig meisje met vonkjes die rond haar hoofd dansen vlucht voor een vuurzee en wordt wakker in een dorpje met kabouter-acjtige wezentjes. Zij slaan al snel voor haar op de vlucht om redenen die pas later duidelijk worden. Het meisje ontmoet een wolf (die er voor mij meer uitziet als een vos) en begint te leren over haar vermogens, haar lotsbestemming en de monsterachtige wezens die op haar jagen.
Het verhaal is spannend maar vrij cliché als je bekend bent met het Fantasy genre. De tekeningen zijn goed maar soms verwarrend. In het begin kom ik maar geen grip krijgen op de schaal. Zo draagt sprietje een rok van zo te zien eikenbladeren en ogen de andere wezentjes uit het begin als kabouters die ongeveer even groot zijn als haar maar even later jagen zij op een groot hert, waarbij ze tot ongeveer schofthoogte komen. Af en toe voelt het alsof de tekenaar gewoon geen goed gevoel voor schaal heeft, later blijkt dat de schaal van de wezens letterlijk verandert en wordt dat ook genoemd in de dialoog, maar het blijft nogal vreemd aandoen. Het kleurgebruik is mooi gebalanceerd en oogt aantrekkelijk maar is niet altijd even leesbaar. Zo draagt Sprietje bijvoorbeeld groene handschoenen, terwijl de rest van haar kleding, en de meeste achtergronden, ook uit groentinten bestaan. Het is niet voor niets dat Mickey Mouse Witte handschoenen kreeg.
Verder zeker wel de moeite van het lezen waard. Sommige illustraties, zoals de grotere landschap illustraties zijn erg mooi.

très bluffée par les illustrations de ce premier tome, qui sont à la fois très enivrante et parfois un peu plus sanglante. le trait de crayon est vraiment agréable, et la palette de couleur, assez terne, ploinge réellement le lecteur dans une fôret à la fois hostile et ancrée dans une réalité non-féerique. il ne se passe pas grand chose, mais j'ose espérer que la suite sera un peu pluis dynamique!

[Lucille]

Un périple qui n'a rien à envier à celui de Frodon et Sam, à travers une forêt et des paysages impressionnants. Une quête d'identité et une fuite face à de sombres ennemis. Une histoire mystérieuse agrémentée d'illustrations sombres et sublimes.

J'attends de lire le 2/2 avant de noter car celui-ci n'apporte aucune réponse et je ne sais pas vraiment où cela va mener.

[Ophilia Adler · Rating 2 out of 5]

Den var ok. Fantasy seriebok men extremt vackra bilder. Men fina bilder gör inte att jag inte lägger märke till en dålig story.

Efter att jag löst sista boken förstår jag vad man försökte göra. Boken känns poetisk, typiskt franskt. Men ville haft ut mer o fått mer förklaringar. Istället kändes det hoppigt, ryckigt och för snabbt.

[Noémie Courtois · Rating 3 out of 5]

Plutôt 3.5

C’est une superbe BD, et l’histoire est bien, mais on apprend si peu de choses que je me demande comment 2 tomes pourront être suffisants. J’ai tout de même très hâte de lire la suite!

Lu pour le Pumpkin Autumn Challenge 2018 dans la catégorie Clochette, Grimoire et Chandelle.

[BumfuzzledNerd · Rating 2 out of 5]

Die Zeichnungen sind wirklich wunderschön, aber die Story konnte mich nu abholen. Es wird zu wenig erklärt und die Szenenwechsel sind zu abrupt. Ich hatte oft das Gefühl, dass mir Informationen fehlen. Die Gespräche lesen sich zu holprig und ich dachte mehr als einmal, dass ich versehentlich eine Seite übersprungen hatte.

Un premier tome où on en sait trop peu... j'attends la suite !

[Annamaria · Rating 4 out of 5]

The drawings are BEAUTIFUL, I recommend this to anyone who wants something visually and aesthetically pleasing. Also, Brindille is so cute. However, the story is too fast, and not much is said in the first volume. More information, insight and details would be nice! However, I love the setting and drawings, so I would rate this 3.75 stars (since I was interested in this because of the drawings anyway)

[Goodnight C. Lullaby · Rating 2 out of 5]

De superbes illustrations, mais c'est tout... Le volume ne fait que soulever des questions sans jamais donner de réponse. Je sais qu'il y a une suite, mais ne rien savoir du tout pendant tout le livre ne donne pas envie de lire la suite. Au contraire. J'ai l'impression d'avoir lu cliffhangers sur cliffhangers et c'est dommage...

(Et aussi, c'est peut-être un détail pour certain·es... Mais pourquoi il faut toujours une femme à poil pour rien dans les BD ?)

Bottino di Lucca 2018!!!

Dal punto di vista grafico è un piacere per gli occhi, come gli altri volumi del duo Brrémaud-Bertolucci. Dal punto di vista della storia... meh! Non si sa niente di Brindille - e questo può anche andare - ma poi spunta una volpe che apparentemente sa e deve guidare la ragazza da qualche parte. Ma non le dice dove. Ma ci sono dei cattivoni che la vogliono. La ragazza, dico, non la volpe.

Ma i disegni son spettacolari!

Adesso vediamo un po' cosa ci dice il secondo volume.

L'ho preso a Lucca e son riuscita anche ad avere una piccola dedica di Bertolucci in prima pagina.

[Shatiel · Rating 3 out of 5]

Sono molto confusa...
I disegni sono meravigliosi, ma la storia non ha ne capo ne coda...
Immagino di dover leggere entrambi i volumi per capire qualcosa? Vedremo...
Comunque quello che viene identificato come "lupo" è chiaramente una volpe. Mah...
Di sicuro è il fumetto francese che mi ha lasciata più allibita tra tutti quelli che io abbia mai letto (e son parecchi).

[Kerry · Rating 3 out of 5]

This comic/graphic novel has some beautiful artwork, it’s what initially drew me in and made me want to read this. It’s a quick read but I think there is far too much content for its length.

The story is that of ‘twig’ a girl who finds herself lost in the woods with no memories, fighting her way across a magical realm to uncover her memories.

I think the pace of the story it’s too quick in my opinion, the protagonist moves through event after event in quick succession and I would have really liked more details particularly about the world in the story.
I also didn’t feel I got a chance to really know the characters in the story all that well.

I did enjoy the concept of the story it took unexpected twists and I would never have guessed the ending. I also hugely enjoyed the art work

All in all it’s worth a read I just wish it had been longer and more detailed.
Thanks to netgalley and the publisher for this ecopy

3,50 stelle.
Carini i disegni, e mi piace la leggerezza nel raccontare la storia, accompagnata dalle vignette e dalle illustrazioni piene di boschi ecc, ma purtroppo in circa 80 pagine viene raccontato poco e niente della trama e del perché stia succedendo ciò che viene mostrato nelle pagine... Le cose si ripetono un po', senza effettivamente dire qualcosa in più. Spero di avere maggiori risposte nel secondo volume, anche se forse questa graphic novel non ha le pretese di avere chissà che trama di fondo... Penso che lo scopo sia di creare leggerezza a chi lo legge e l'obiettivo di creare una trama mooolto tranquilla, senza chissà quale grande trama nascosta o da scoprire... Ma forse mi sbaglio.
Comunque leggerò sicuramente il seguito.

I think my expectations on this book were a little too high because it left me with a feeling of "oookay, is this it?". I know there's a sequel and maybe I'll read it one day but for now I can say that the story didn't engage me very much. It felt very basic and I couldn't really connect to any of the characters. The pacing was also a little out of tune for me.

That said the illustrations are amazing and I love the designs of the various creatures inhabiting this world. I also read the Swedish translation of the book and it was very well made as far as I can tell.

Not a bad book at all, but not what I wanted it to be either. I'm sure it has its readers, it's just not for me.

[KSena · Rating 4 out of 5]

The illustrations in this graphic novel is absolutly breath-taking! Really! They're like little artworks every single one of them. And the main character is a classical fantasy character in that she has no memory of who she is, where she comes from, and what her purpose is.

But there in lays also the problem with this story. Because you get NO hints at all what is going on. No one is presented. The bad guys isn't presented. The good guys isn't presented. The world is just barely explained. Which just leaves me quite confused as to what is going on.

The high scores are for the illustrations. It's quite rare to see graphic novels this gorgeous.

[Sara Martínez Pérez-Tomé · Rating 3 out of 5]

I liked the illustrative style a lot, it was beautiful but I must admit that the story left me a bit cold.
There were many changes in the reading pace where important things happened very fast or were omitted and the reader had to figure out what had happened or what was the information said before. Also, the ending was quite "meh" for me. I felt it was a bit pulled out of ether and did not answer the questions I had, or like I didn't understand some elements: the shadow hunters, the horde (which was quite common)...

I don't know, I liked the illustrative style but the story to me felt kinda dissappointing.

[Drine Psylook · Rating 5 out of 5]

Je les ai choisies parce que les dessins m’ont plu – oui, je suis faible, ce n’est pas nouveau, mais cela m’a permis une fois de plus de découvrir une chouette saga. Les décors sont super beaux et j’adore les couleurs typiques des albums de fantasy.
L’histoire est toute simple, pourtant j’ai beaucoup aimé : je trouve que c’est une bonne initiation à la fantasy jeunesse. J’ai adoré cette lecture.
