[Graphic Novel] Fahrenheit 451 by Tim Hamilton

August 3, 2017      Erica Robyn      8 Comments

What perfect timing! I just finished rereading the Fahrenheit 451 novel just a couple of days ago, and then I received the notification that the graphic novel was available at my local library!

Needless to say, I dove in immediately.

My Thoughts on Fahrenheit 451: The Authorized Adaptation by Tim Hamilton

This review is going to be quite short, as I only have a few things to say about this adaptation:

  1. I thought that this graphic novel captured the tone of the original novel very well. 
  2. I loved that it stayed true to the original storyline.
  3. The artwork and color palette was lovely and set the perfect atmosphere. Some pages were dark and dreary, others were vibrant and hot!
  4. My god, seeing the hound drawn out was incredibly spooky!

Just check out use of color on these two spreads:

My Final Thoughts on Fahrenheit 451: The Authorized Adaptation

I’ll admit, I had my hopes up really high for this book… And I am so happy to say that it did not disappoint. I thought this was an absolutely incredible adaptation!


Snag a copy through Bookshop to help support local indie bookshops:

Thanks for reading!

If you had to choose just one book to memorize, otherwise it would be forever lost to the world, what book would you pick?

    I've never read this novel, which is sad, but I'm definitely interested in the graphic novel. Going to check my local libraries.

    I read Fahrenheit 451 in high school, but never saw the movie, although now I see HBO is adapting it into a new movie. The images from the graphic novel are really impressive. I always seem to confuse it with Soylent Green.

Max is one of the most hilarious people that I fol Max is one of the most hilarious people that I follow on Twitter! I originally learned who he was after seeing him participate in the KillerCon 2020 Virtual Event. I went to follow him and his publishing house, Perpetual Motion Machine (that he runs with Lori Michelle), immediately after his reading.

Within the PMM publishing house, they also have the imprint, Ghoulish Books, which launched in January of 2022. Max’s latest book, Maggots Screaming!, launched today April 12th, 2022 from that imprint. In celebration, I’m so excited to be sharing this interview with Max!
