The Kingstone Bible Trilogy Hardcover – October 10, 2016

This is an extremely enjoyable way to experience the bible. It is put together in chronological order which makes the whole story flow easily, the art work is top level professional and each story and section has different art styles from different artists which keeps things fresh.They absolutely did not skip on quality in anyway. I'm not very religious but I wanted to understand the bible better and this was a perfect way to do it. The timelines that tie the stories within the framework of historical events and time periods they put in the beginning with the table of contents is really helpful. One of the coolest things I've bought this year.

These books are amazing! I have always wanted a set, and when my nephew moved in and was finding it difficult to read the Bible, I immediately ordered these. Now he is learning and getting a footing and after this set he will understand what he is reading and recognize the characters.I’m extremely impressed with this set. The visuals are phenomenal. Storyline is simple and I’m just wowed. Worth every penny!!It makes me excited to see my 13 year old nephew happy to read it. He gets up every morning and grabs the first volume like it’s his iPad 🤗.

These are so great I bought a set for my neighbor and another set for my shelf just in case. This let me read the full Bible in two weeks because I have disabilities. The art was so much fun! The only short entries were Psalms and Proverbs, but they were represented. If you like graphic novels and you’ve always wanted to read the Bible, this is the way!

Wow.

I've ordered this and will receive it tomorrow as of this writing, so I haven't had hands on this product yet, but the reason why I'm writing this review now is because I wanna give my rational for ordering it.I was born and raised Catholic, and as the old joke by a comedian in the 80s who I can't remember exactly who it was let alone their name, that "yes, I'm Catholic, I don't read the Bible, I just show up every Sunday for a 45 minute Book Report." (I don't even do that anymore as I'm leaning more towards the Ancient Alien Theology at the moment, as I believe that many "Divine" moments in the Bible can be explained thru UFO encounters.) But anyway, I bought this because one of the reasons why people in general don't read the Bible is because it's written in an almost Riddle form that is widely open to different interpretations. I mean I read a Bible passage that's cryptic, and I ask, "what the hell does that mean?" (No pun intended.) People just don't talk like that now in everyday life. So what I hope this graphic novelization version of the Bible will do for me at least (I'm almost 46) is to finally give me a sense of what the Bible has been saying all along with the help of pictures to put these passages in better [visual] context. Who knows, I may become reunited with my childhood faith after I read this set. But I will say this, I'm a History Major, not a Scientist, and I believe that yes, the Bible is probably a good history book (to some extent) but it's not a science book at all, especially when it comes to the Book of Genesis. This idea that the Earth may only be a few thousand years old going by the vague timeline in which humans were put here and so forth from the time the Earth was created just doesn't hold up to the actual geological records of rock strata.I've rated this review at 3 stars for the moment as a Neutral rating. When I get the set and start reading/looking thru them, I'll update this review as I see fit.UPDATE (12-18-24): Yes, I've had the set for over 5 years now, but admit that I've only read up thru most of the Book of Job, but what I mentioned above about being able to understand the with the help of the Comic Book-style illustrations is True. When you get that visual interpretation of the almost cryptic scripts of the Bible then it's so much easier to understand what's being said by whom and to whom.

Bought both the Action Bible and The Kingstone Trilogy to compare the two. Currently reading the Action Bible and I can really tell the difference based on age limited details and pictures differ from Kingstone. Once I finish the Action Bible, I'll re-read it by going through the Kingstone version

My 10 year old was excited about a graphic novel experience. We tried action bibLe and it just wasn’t what he was looking for. The 3 volume set of Kingstone was perfect. Exactly what he was looking for in an illustrated story Bible. It is set up as stories not verses. It is not a study Bible.

I'm 27 and was raised in the churchy family but I was never present the scriptures in a way that I could make sense of them. This is a good way to get the message in plain English. Even for non religious people that are curious of the story of the Bible. This presentation makes the most sense, to me at least.
