Interesting back story in the introduction to the comic bo – - WHOOPS! – - introduction to the GRAPHIC NOVEL.
The Probability Broach was L. Neil’s first novel. I read it quite soon after publication. I didn’t know it at the time, but the paperbook edition I got was later to become a valuable collector’s item.
Anyhow, the Graphic Novel linked above is now out in its entirety. It was published in weekly installments, with five to seven pages in each. I started reading it in the first few weeks, and looked forward to it every week. All hundred-eighty-some are out now, so one may do the entire novel in one sitting. I suggest spreading it out at least a little. That way, one gets to more fully enjoy the wonderful illustrations.
Best,
