The Pilgrim's Progress - Volume 1 Review: Beautiful, vivid graphic novel version, sticks pretty close to original narrative - Having read Pilgrim's Progress in the original language and in modern language, I definitely appreciate this graphic novel version. It has vivid colors and is a high quality graphic novel. The interpretation of some parts is astounding - for example, Christian's burden is like a bundle/backpack, but the "straps" are skeletal showing how the burden is heavy as death to him. Although the graphic novel form is no substitute for the full text version, I appreciate the details in this book and the characterizations. Another reviewer said that Apollyon was portrayed as a woman, so that made me nervous for the sincerity of the story's portrayal. However, Apollyon is clearly NOT portrayed as a woman (see photo), but at one point seems to take the form of a seductress to tempt Christian to remain in the world. Although there are a few licenses taken (some characters are portrayed as women rather than men, like Help), the meaning of the allegory is clear and the graphics are breathtaking. I would definitely buy this as a gift for someone interested in Christian living who also has a penchant for graphic novels. Review: Good story, slightly questionable art.... - While the storyline is timeless and worth the venture, especially for younger Christians, the art was a bit questionable at times. Namely the pentagram Holy Angels were supposed to be coming from, and the fact that at least one of the angels looked like a fairy creature. What's up with that? Why use questionable symbolism's at all? There were a few other things as well... Still, overall the message was very good, and the book was worth the read. It gives us an allegorical view of what the journey to becoming a Christian is like, and then also what it is like to fight the good fight of faith as a Christian (this mostly covered in book 2). ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #502,885 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #1,684 in Fantasy Graphic Novels (Books) #7,085 in Children & Teens Christian Books | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars (97) | | Dimensions | 5.75 x 0.5 x 8 inches | | ISBN-10 | 1613280572 | | ISBN-13 | 978-1613280577 | | Item Weight | 8.8 ounces | | Language | English | | Print length | 152 pages | | Publication date | April 1, 2011 | | Publisher | Kingstone Media | ## Images ![The Pilgrim's Progress - Volume 1 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51pA22yLdLL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Beautiful, vivid graphic novel version, sticks pretty close to original narrative *by S***O on June 22, 2016* Having read Pilgrim's Progress in the original language and in modern language, I definitely appreciate this graphic novel version.

My kids really enjoy these. The binding isn't the best so they're kind of thrashed. But now they really want to read the actual pilgrims progress book! --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.nz/products/5560454-the-pilgrims-progress-volume-1](https://www.desertcart.nz/products/5560454-the-pilgrims-progress-volume-1) --- *Product available on Desertcart New Zealand* *Store origin: NZ* *Last updated: 2026-04-26*
