June 13, 2017      Erica Robyn      2 Comments

Tooth and Claw by Joshua Viola, Angie Hodapp & Carrie Vaughn

What a stunning graphic novel! If you haven’t heard of Tooth and Claw by Joshua Viola, Angie Hodapp & Carrie Vaughn yet, I highly recommend checking it out! Add it to your Goodreads TBR by clicking here.

Full disclosure: I was given a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. This did not affect my rating in any way.

Let’s dive in!

My Thoughts on Tooth and Claw by Joshua Viola, Angie Hodapp & Carrie Vaughn

First of all… this artwork. It is incredible! Each panel looks a bit like an oil paintings because the texture is very soft. The color palette is mainly natural colors with splashes of vibrance.

The storyline was interesting and fast paced. I really loved that the story was carried mainly through the artwork, while the splashes of dialogue here and there supported the story.

The whole book was organized so wonderfully. I loved the way that the panels were broken up on the page in varying formats, and that each border of a panel wasn’t clean cut.

And boy, I am a total sucker for when the artist includes sound bubbles for noises that are incorporated into the panel like this:

The afterward by Carrie Vaughn was also very well written! It’s a short essay about nature and man that makes readers question their own thoughts and feelings about their connection to the wild. 

My Final Thoughts on Tooth and Claw

I LOVED everything about this quick read! The artwork was incredible, the storyline was fast paced and intriguing, and I enjoyed the characters. I would have happily read many more pages!
