(Well, his name *is* on the cover of the spiffy new movie tie-in edition, but you know what I mean.)Īnywho, back to the bio! My favorite of my novels is my middle-grade debut, The Boy From Tomorrow. David Kajganich wrote the script, and I often say (0% kidding) that if I could go back in time I'd novelize the screenplay and put both our names on the cover.

My young adult novel, Bones & All, won an Alex Award from YALSA and the American Library Association in 2016 (thank you, librarians!!) This little teen-cannibal road trip novel has been adapted into a film directed by Luca Guadagnino and starring Taylor Russell, Timothée Chalamet, Mark Rylance, and a bunch more stunningly talented actors. Whether you are a longtime fan of Bone or a newcomer, this edition is the perfect way to experience this classic series in its entirety.I'm the author of three fantasy novels for adults- Immaculate Heart, Mary Modern, and Petty Magic. Its epic storyline, memorable characters, and outstanding artwork make it a must-read for any fan of the genre.

Overall, Bone: The Complete Edition is an exceptional graphic novel that will delight readers of all ages. The use of black and white instead of color adds to the book's charm and makes the characters and their surroundings more visually striking. The artwork is stunning, with detailed and intricate illustrations that bring the story to life. The humor is smart and witty, with a perfect balance of light-heartedness and darker elements that keep the story engaging. The characters are well-developed, and their personalities are vividly portrayed through their dialogue and actions. The author's masterful storytelling, combined with his unique artistic style, makes Bone a remarkable graphic novel.

They stumble upon a deep forested valley filled with a plethora of fascinating creatures, both friendly and frightening, and spend the next year of their lives trying to survive and find their way back home. The three Bone cousins, Fone Bone, Phoney Bone, and Smiley Bone, are forced to flee their hometown of Boneville and find themselves lost in a vast and uncharted desert. The book is a compilation of all nine volumes of Bone comics, totaling 1300 pages, in one deluxe trade paperback. Bone: The Complete Edition is an epic graphic novel by Jeff Smith that tells the story of three modern cartoon cousins who get lost in a pre-technological valley, spending a year there making new friends and out-running dangerous enemies.
