The Shepherd's Tale

This is just a short graphic novel. I've wanted to read it for awhile, but the first edition went out of print when I tried to buy it and then I ended up forgetting about it.

A friend of mine got it from the library and let me borrow it from him before he read it.

I always wanted to know the deal with Book, and one of the most frustrating parts of the movie was they didn't explore that at all.

This book is a bit of a mixed bag. The story and art is good. I liked the way they transitioned back to different times of Book's life.

However it was very short, and while it confirmed some things I suspected, it mostly added to my questions rather than answering them. I would have liked some kind of short video format, or a novella to the graphic novel simply to get a more detailed back story.

Worth checking out if you're a firefly fan though.
