pickI‘ve read a few books about Tolkien, Lewis, and the Inklings, and I still thoroughly enjoyed the style and perspective of this book. It‘s not strictly a graphic novel biography as it alternates full pages of text with panels and also includes a few narrative fantasy elements, but it is full of factual information about both writers and their friendship. The art was also great.

This is a fascinating look at the relationship between Tolkien and Lewis with pages of text and illustration interspersed with full graphic novel panels featuring a lion and wizard. There‘s a lot about their beliefs and writing styles more than events of their lives.

Today I learned that J.R.R. Tolkien & Edith (his future wife) spent time in tea shops as teens throwing sugar cubes into the hats of unsuspecting ladies.
This is a graphic novel biography of C.S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien, and so far I‘m intrigued by how it‘s put together. It‘s also nice to read something a bit lighter about them.

This was my favorite book as a child, and the first one to really show me that books could take me to other places, worlds…
