Death’s final story
When I first saw the title of this
storybook it sparked my interest. It seemed very mysterious and lured me in
right away. When I first started reading I was immediately intrigued, the idea
around the story was creative and unique. It was retelling stories through the
eyes of death itself. While I looked through the stories I didn’t really
recognize the original stories that inspired the new and really enjoyed the
creative retelling. The overall layout of the page was also done very well. The
grey tones fit the story and I enjoyed the title pictures.
Choosing Paradise
I was a
little skeptical about reading this storybook just based on the title alone but
you know what they say, you can’t judge a book by its cover. This storybook is
no different. I was immediately engulfed into this world of science fiction and
hypnotized by the dialogue and idea of artificial intelligence. The
incorporation of the story of Adam and Eve from the bible into a science
fiction piece centered on the creation of an artificial intelligence system and
its search for life is brilliant. The page layout was also done very well and
created a nice flow for the story. I really enjoyed her use of breaks to
subjugate the story.
Camp Olympus
Camp
Olympus was a fun story with a very inviting twist that took you back to the
days of ignorant adolescence. The use of diary entry to reveal stories and
juicy gossip is creative and amusing, adding a really unique flair to the
story. I also enjoyed the organization of the story. Even though it was all
being told from a single perspective it was still based on character
interactive character. And, although not
every characters have an entry, they are included in the story.
