    A brilliant and compelling story, backed up with wonderfully drawn pictures.

    This is quite a rare book in the series and I was very pleased to obtain an immaculate, hard cover copy. It completes my set of 24 copies of TinTin stories that have ever been written and drawn by Hergé. Even at my age (78) I can still appreciate a compelling story and the delightful drawings which are a joy to all big kids, and young ones too!

  • Most critical review

    Beware! this is NOT the original publication.

    Pages/story has been changed from the original, I suppose so it will not offend sensitive readers. If you are looking for original text, this is not it.

  • Great full sized hardback version like the originals

    Very nice full sized hard-back edition with clear text. There are many subpar reduced sized versions out there, so I was pleasantly surprised, this is like the originals. It is also a hard to get book due to the current political correctness craze. Thoroughly recommended if you want to complete your collection

  • Tintin

    Tintin stories are a fascinating glimpse into a vanished world. The artwork is interesting and it is intriguing to see how it fits into the development of the graphic novel.
