Book Reviews of Tintin in the Land of the Soviets (The Adventures of Tintin)
Book Review: Disappointing... from a die-hard Tintin fan.
Summary: 2 Stars
First off Tintin is one of my all-time favorite book series. I used to read them as a kid and still have all them that were purchased nearly 30 years ago, and I'm looking forward to reading them to my son when he gets a little older. I accidentally discovered that this book was available, and bought it straight away.
I'm disappointed because that everything that makes Tintin a great read is not here. No story, no characters, no adventure. Just a series of should-be fatal accidents and hardly any dialogue. Frankly I don't care so much that the drawings are not as refined as the rest of the books. What does bother me is that the content of this book is so dumbed-down. I was a tedious read - so much so that I could barely finish it.
I gave it two stars instead of just one because it does have obvious collector value. If you're looking for an enjoyable read, in comparison to the other books, I would steer clear of this one. I wish I had.
