Volume 4 of Locke & Key
2011/7/22
形式:ハードカバー|Amazonが確認した購入
NO SPOILERS
I eagerly awaited the arrival of this volume, as this series has become my new favorite! I ran into a little disappointment, but not much.
The new hardcover is just as lovely as the last ones - glossy details on a matt background. The front endpapers show illustrations of keys from previous volumes, while new keys are on the back endpapers.
The opening story, "Sparrow," focuses mainly on young Bode. What makes this episode special is that a potentially horrifying series of events is toned down by the clever use of humor and artistic style. Some of the episode is drawn the same way as the rest of the series, but for most of it Rodriguez uses a "Calvin and Hobbs" style, and Hill adds pertinent, funny dialog. The illustrative styles are interspersed. Very cleverly done. The episode, "February" shows small calendar pages next to the events pictured, helping to connect short events that happen in quick succession. Only a scene or several are necessary for these bits, and without some bridging the episode would have been a muddle.
The only thing I disliked about this volume was that several keys were introduced in too quick succession, without the details of their discovery or the details of their use. A frame or two is all provided in a couple of cases. As the book moved on, though, I could see how this was necessary to avoid slowing the plot to a crawl. Still, I wanted to know more!
Hill also addresses the stick subject of racism without becoming preachy. He moves the plot along well, revealing more on the mystery surrounding the black key and the missing teens. The last episode was sure to end in a horrifying manner...and it did, but not how I expected! In addition, he manages to bring some major events to a head while simultaneously throwing the main characters into a new morass of confusion. And they don't even know it!
How will I survive until the next book?

Another great Volume
2011/7/31
形式:ハードカバー
As anyone who as read the previous volumes of Locke and key or purchased the single issues or both as I have, know what a brilliant story and amazing artwork this series gives us. This doesnt change and we only get deeper into the lives of the Locke children and the mysterious keys. What does change is Hill starts to experiment with different styles. Some might desire the same pace storytelling as in past issues however I feel it doesnt hurt the story at all. I feel anyone who has followed Locke from the start has grown with the characters and no longer needs every key explained and the plot slowed just to introduce a new key. There is much more detail and depth being developed within the characters that as readers we dont need to know where every key was found and how they figured out what each did. The real mystery especially for the children, the dark lady, the cave, and thier fathers past are being disected. This volume ends in a big way making the wait for the next vol almost unbearable. My advice is to buy the issues its a great enough series that its nice to have both. New readers start with Welcome to Lovecraft and im sure you will be hooked and on to this volume within a day as long as you can buy the volumes in between. Old readers why havent you gotten this already? It only continues an already excellent story and pushes us further and deeper into the mysteries of the Lockehouse.

This series continues to be the best out there. Book 4 is just as awesome as the 3 before.
If you are still reading this stop, and go read Keys to the Kingdom.
