3.0 out of 5 stars Good introduction, December 26, 2000
By 
Brian Adams (Durham, NC United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Little Nemo in the Palace of Ice and Further Adventures (Paperback)
This is a good book if you want to get a feel for Little Nemo, but not if you want to have a complete collection of the strips. The artwork is beautiful and the storyline is great, unfortunately, the editor has taken out some parts of the story, so near the end it starts to become kind of clippy, so to speak.

4.0 out of 5 stars No, it's not new material., September 5, 2004

Nicholas D. Kent (NYC, United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Little Nemo in the Palace of Ice and Further Adventures (Paperback)
For the person asking. This is an affordable fairly large color reproduction of a story McCay told over consecutive weeks in newspapers during the turn of the century. Sometimes McCay would draw stand alone pages. Sometimes Little Nemo would dream a connected story over weeks - but of course he would always wake up at the end of exch strip. This is one of those. The book uses original collected color newspapers from the turn of the 1900s so the quality isn't perfect though it's still very impessive. You don't need this if you are going to get the complete collections but the cost is low and it's a perfect way to see if you enjoy this work by catching a continuing story from a high point in quality and imagination.

4.0 out of 5 stars A great first step into a larger world..., January 4, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Little Nemo in the Palace of Ice and Further Adventures (Paperback)
Windsor McCay is one of my favorite artists, and I was exuberent when I found out there was a book collecting some of Nemo's adventures. Although not as comprehensive as the more expensive "Complete" books, The Palace of Ice is a great way to see if you like Little Nemo, or not. And if you do, and own the complete Little Nemo series, I still recomend buying this book.
