Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Marvelous!
Review: The Hedge Knight is a marvelous graphic novel detailing the adventures (or beginning of them, anyway) of Sir Duncan the Tall and Egg. The story, crafted by George RR Martin, is impeccible. The artisty, by Mike Miller, is flawless. Swift, vivid and moving. The Hedge Knight should not be missed.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: It's a Graphic Novel & It's Awesome
Review: When I first saw this listed I thought Martin had done the same thing Jordan had done with "New Spring", in other words I thought he had taken the awesome short story from "Legends" and expanded it into a longer novel forcing me to spend extra money even though I had already shelled out for "Legends".

Thanks to reading a couple of the reviews I learned I was horribly mistaken and had kept myself from enjoying an awesome story in comic form.

It is the exact same story from the short story "The Hedge Knight" but as every reader knows the change of mediums from prose to comic gives the reader a new experience. I would never say that one or the other is better, that is up to the reader, but I would definitely say it is a real treat to be able to switch between the two. The artwork is beatiful and true to story, and I didn't feel that anything was left out that had been in the short story.

My only disappointment is knowing they can't do the entire series in this form also.
