Product Description: A long-dormant volcano explodes, blacking out the sun, mowing down trees, and filling the land with soot and ash. The Lord of the Locusts has been released. Against this apocalyptic backdrop, the Bone cousins along with Thorn and Gran'ma Ben struggle to reach safe haven in the city of Atheia.
Meanwhile, Lucius Downs lies severely wounded and trapped with the villagers in the camp at Old Man's Cave.
Great just plain fun I haven't enjoyed comics so much in over 60 years. The whole Bone series is a great fun read. Actually, I didn't, but someone thinking of starting this series might find that reading the prequel first, Rose, can add to your understanding of the Bone Series 1-9. Rose was drawn by Vess instead of Smith, but Vess is top notch as well. I thought I was through with "comics" 50 years ago, then Smith drops "Bone" on me and my second childhood has commenced. Highly recomended.
Bone My grandaughter LOVES the Bone series. I have purchased all volumes for her. She is not a fan of reading, but she reads these.
Great for pre-teen boys. bone is always a book I can get my boys (ages 11 and 9) to read. thank you
the adventure continues In this volume, the story gets more and more serious and scary. I really liked it. The characters are so likeable and the plot so fun and engaging you can't help but enjoy the Bone books, and this one rates very highly.
the pivotal volume BONE volume seven is one of the greatest stories of BONE. Even though the first five are less grim, this graphic novel is an addition to the BONE series that the other books could not do without.
I tried reading volume eight: Treasure Hunters before this, mainly because my hold on Ghost Circles arrived after volume eight. I couldn't wait for volume seven, so I dove right into Treasure Hunters. To make a long story short, it was awful. After my hold arrived, I decided to reread them in order. Sure enough, volume eight made much more sense after having read volume seven, and now both have been added to my favorites list, along with The Great Cow Race and The Dragonslayer.
