If you haven't read the graphic novels before reading this book, you'll probably be a bit confused at times -- it helps to have the existing knowledge that the graphic novels give, as well as being able to visualize the Unsafe backstage area (this book has some illustrations but very few).
Overall I liked this story. I'm interested to see how the other two novels play out, considering the last bit almost suggests that there could be several novels ahead, so quite a bit will be jammed into the other two in this series.
