This graphic novel adaptation is an impactful read. Even without reading the original novel, it proves that the original Slaughterhouse-Five's status of a classic is well-earned. The depictions of war are chilling, whereas the different philosophical thoughts flashed throughout the story linger and make you stop to think.

dark funny
I read the novel once and didn't really “get” it. I can’t say this graphic novel made me love the book, but the way it presented the story worked better for me and helped me keep track of what was happening “when.” I liked the art style a lot and think, as a whole, it’s a really well-done adaptation.
