Title: Wonderful story, not an eBook
Review: The original illustrations are the most wonderful part of this book (Kindle Edition), and essential (a good word) to its meaning. They are captured here magnificently. A classic in every sense, readers are cautioned that this is not really an eBook but an actual series of graphic illustrations, including the text. Hence no TOC, index, x-ray, text-to-speech or any of the other eBook comforts, but it reflects the original work faithfully - the book didn't have text-to-speech or font-resizing either, but one star off because it IS listed as a Kindle Edition and is without those features. And yes, Howard's translation is more "exact," losing some of the poetic flavor of Woods' translation, but I think the meaning is not lost. Actually, probably best read in the original French....
