Actually, I gave it 4.5 out of 5, but we all GoodReads and fractions don't play nice together. Visit my blog, The Itinerant Librarian to read my review. Just click (or copy and paste in your browswer) the link: http://itinerantlibrarian.blogspot.com/2013/10/booknote-hellboy-midnight-circus.... Young Hellboy runs away and stumbles onto the Midnight Circus, a frightening place where it's difficult to tell friend from foe. The story is juxtaposed with that of Pinocchio, someone else who at times wants to be a "real boy." It was a little scary and a little sweet, just the way I like my Hellboy. (Provided by publisher) I just finished this book and the one complaint I have is that it is too damn short. You have to wait forever for a new book and then it is so short. I loved it, I really enjoy the stories of whem he is young. I just wish that Mike Mignola would write like a 300+ graphic novels about Hellboy and BPRD. Maybe that would be a nice fix for this Hellboy junkie, of course I would still want more. This is a great read and well worth the price and time. keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

Hellboy, kid, teen, lives surrounded by adults at all times (various agents and scientists from BPRD). Living in such surroundings it is no surprise he considers himself to be one of the team so when he gets put to his place he takes it very hard. Since he is in a very sensitive teen years (when almost anything will annoy the teen :) ) this results in his rebellious escape one night when he comes across the mysterious circus advertising marvels and show from midnight to the crack of dawn.
Puzzled he decides to see the circus show but very soon he will find himself in company of monsters that will tease him to [by reacting to their actions] do what he was meant to do on Earth from the beginning - open the gates of Hell.
Excellent story, I especially liked parallels with the Pinocchio, both aspiring to become true boys but making errors on the way to achieving their goal - errors that scare them and sometimes scar them but errors that are nevertheless part of the growing up.
Art as always is very beautiful, Duncan Fegredo is truly an excellent artist.
Highly recommended to all fans of Hellboy and/or eerie stories. ( )
