Adapted for stage and screen, loved by millions, Victor Hugo's classic novel of love and tragedy set in 19th century France is reborn in this fantastic new manga edition! Gorgeous and expressive art brings to life the unforgettable stories of Jean Valjean, Inspector Javert, and the tragic Fantine in this epic adaptation of Les Misérables!

„Les Misérables“ is one of my favourite books and stories and after watching half a dozen movie retellings of the story as well as seeing and listening to the famous musical it was made into, I just had to read the Manga adaptation of it as well.
Of course the characters are drawn quite cute and I feel like the protagonists are all too handsome but it is a manga afterall and it just fits the style of this medium.
I feel like this is quite a good adaptation of the story, without it being too confusing and losing itself in the many details provided by the original book (if you know, you know), so it is closer to - for example - the mini TV series.
I relly enjoyed reading the manga and can recommend it for those who want to read the story wothout having to actually read pages upon pages about the french convents or the parisian sewersystems.
