Paperback/Hardcover: .uk Īlso see: Sense and Sensibility Manga Classics by Stacy King (Goodreads Author) (Story Adaptation), Po Tse (Art by), Jane Austen (Original Story) I received this review copy from NetGalley While I recommend all the other manga classics published by Udon Entertainment I really didn’t like this one.

This is probably due to the source material, but the style of language used throughout the novel and the use of derogatory terms really put me off. I didn’t want to do it as I was enjoying the art style, but I couldn’t follow the story at all, it was all over the place and it seems liked nothing was happening. Shortly before the halfway mark, I had to, unfortunately, DNF this manga classics.

He learns that Jim has been named as his murderer as he ran away the night that Huck faked his death and he can’t come out and clear his friend’s name as it would give away his whole plan of running away and starting a new life. In order to get more food and information, Huck disguises himself as a girl and heads into the town before they set off on their raft again. After a while, Huck has had enough and fakes his death and sets off in a boat down the river, but along the way, he bumps into his friend Jim a black man who worked for the widow he lived with.Īs we approach the ¼ mark in the novel, Huck and Jim travel together as both have run away for different reasons, but a prank gone wrong sees Jim bitten by a rattlesnake and it takes him 4 days to recover. While people protect him, his father kidnaps him and holds him, prisoner, beating him on a regular basis.

Huck is a very smart boy as he hides his money with a friend after his father comes snooping around. Huck is living with a widow and her old maid friend who have taken Huck in away from his father.
