trike's review against another edition
3.0
A sometimes fun but quite dark fantasy story based on the classic “Great Moon Hoax” published by the New York Sun newspaper in 1835. It starts off rather simply with a letter being delivered and step by step becomes crazier and more outlandish. This would be pretty funny if it weren’t for all the violence .

I thought I started writing a review for this, but I can’t find it. I randomly came across this book at the library and picked it up. I knew nothing about it coming in. it was definitely interesting and a fun read. It is important to read the author note/appendix at the end. Since this is kind of like an historical fiction type of graphic novel. It’s cool sort of learning about these historical figures in a different way (like PT Barnum, Clement Moore, Samuel Morey, Mr. Audubon, and others).
