This arrived in the mail the other day, nevermind that I ordered it months and months ago. Why so late in arriving, you ask? It took a while but a good read is always worth it, and it even got to see some of the world on its travels. Murder in Mesopotamia BF and I discovered this Agatha Christie comic book series at the university bookstore, and despite both our long comic book obsessions, none of us knew it existed. S This arrived in the mail the other day, nevermind that I ordered it months and months ago. So, I promptly bought everything they had, and ordered the rest. This particular volume is perhaps more artsy than the previous I've read. The drawings are less defined, and if characters look somewhat similar, it might take a while for it to sink in who you're Murder in Mesopotamia looking at. It's still good artwork. I also felt that Murder in Mesopotamia bit too much detail was absent in the plot. View all 6 comments. Murder in Mesopotamia murder mystery, and actually this was my very first Agatha Christie, but I'm not sure there were enough clues given in the comic strip format for me to figure out who the murderer was. Although my husband thought it was obvious, so I may Murder in Mesopotamia be a bit slow at such things. I didn't find this short graphic novel particulary interesting. The illustrations were just ok and because it was so short, the lack of detail made it seem bland and rushed. I'm sure the regular Agatha Christie novel Murder in Mesopotamia make for a better read. Mar 11, Sarah Fairbairn rated it really liked it. It was an entertaining murder mystery. A quick read that followed well. A story of Murder in Mesopotamia, revenge and murder. I Murder in Mesopotamia going to get my hands on more of these Christie adaptations, asap. A paranoid woman accompanying her husband on an archaelogical dig near the River Tigris is presumed crazy by her friends, companions and nurse, until she shows up dead. Thankfully, Poirot is nearby Murder in Mesopotamia can help unravel a very puzzling mystery. I started reading this and in my head had inadvertently confused this title with They Came from Baghdad so for a while I thought they had left out quite a bit and then started changing the story. Eventually I realized my mistake and that Agatha had written A paranoid woman accompanying her husband on an archaelogical dig near the River Tigris is presumed crazy by her friends, companions and nurse, until she shows up dead. Eventually I realized my mistake and that Agatha had written two stories that have enough similarities as can be confusing This one is a faithful adaptation of its original story as far as I can tell, and is quite a twisty mystery. I'm not a huge fan of Chandre's art style. There are times when it feels like he channels Dali a bit too much and the characters appear horribly disfigured. I did like his adaptation of Poirot, though. He felt true to Christie's descriptions. Again, this series seems to focus on adapting the stories to visual form tactfully enough I have no qualms with handing them to a 12 year old. Notes on content: No language issues that I remember. No sexual content or decency issues. The murder victim is shown with some blood, but it isn't super gory or anything. Aug 08, Antonina Swietlicka rated it it was ok. Murder in Mesopotamia Murder in Mesopotamia one of those mysteries that escalates to the climax in about 2 chapters, then slowly lessens ones interest and slightly disappoints ones view of the book Thankfully, Poirot saves it marginally with his theory and conclusion of the murder. It will make you say " is that really the end, the conclusion? You should read Murder in Mesopotamia is one of those mysteries that escalates to the climax in about 2 chapters, then slowly lessens ones interest and slightly disappoints ones view of the book Thankfully, Poirot saves it marginally with his theory and conclusion of the murder. You should read this book in order to get a good sense of Poirots ways of investigating. He will make you wait for the answer at the edge of your seat and make you feel like an utter buffoon, in one chapter or less. Poirot is a detective that could make even Sherlock Holmes feel ludicrous and imbecilic Poirot could make Sherlock Holmes eat his own shit. Feb 10, Loup0 rated it did not like it.
