I liked this book. Was it as detailed as the original book? Of course not. I doesn't take itself too seriously and skims over much of the details. It tells everything important, though I would caution anyone from reading it that hasn't actually read Vampire Academy. If I hadn't read the series already, I would have been confused. 
 The drawings are great. Christian? Swoon! Dimitri Belikov without a shirt? DOUBLE SWOON! 
 Are the pictures as detailed as say the Twilight graphic novels? No. Is it still a fun read? Absolutely! 
 To be honest I can't wait for more in the series.
