Graceling: The Graphic Novel

 Graceling: The Graphic Novel by Kristin Cashore, adapted and illustrated by Gareth Hinds (2021) 272 pages

Solid fantasy story. I have not read the novel, but was intrigued to experience it in the graphic form. Certain people have special abilities called "Graces." Otherwise it is a realistic Medieval world. Katsa and Po, our heroes who both have Graces, are fierce as a duo. Hinds, the adapter/illustrator, provides a note at the end. "Charismatic figures who can make masses of people believe outright lies will always be among us." Besides the action and romance in the story, I also find this version of evil resonates.
