Wonder Woman: Warbringer by Leigh BardugoMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Diana feels as if she is constantly trying to prove herself. All of her warrior sisters have died in battle before becoming an Amazon, but she was molded out of clay and wants to prove her warrior status to everyone. When she finally has the chance to beat the other warriors in a race, she sees a boat wreck and risks everything to save a mortal girl. This is not any mortal girl; she is a Warbringer. Alia comes from a long line of women who are directly descended from Helen of Troy and their presence brings war to the world. These two unlikely allies are now on a quest to break this curse before Alia is either killed or the next world war breaks out.
Wonder Woman: Warbringer is a graphic novel adaptation of the novel with the same name. I read the original novel about a year ago and was still able to fully enjoy this version without feeling like anything was left out. Bardugo’s novel and graphic novel version of Diana’s first adventure are both wonderful reads. The graphics were extremely well done and added additional details that might go overlooked in a traditional novel. It doesn’t matter if you are an avid Wonder Woman fan or this is your first foray, this book should not be missed.
