Do you have little suspenders to keep your socks on? You might need them after you try this app. I truly love this app. and its capabilities. It's called Madefire. It's an amazing comic book reader, but it also allows you to read Motion Books allowing the user to delve into the comic book with motion, sound, and interactive pictures.

The app. itself is free, some of the comic books are free, but most do cost about the same amount as a regular comic book. Every Friday free comic books are released!

When you first open the app. it will present you with a preview of what the app.'s motion books pertain. Afterward it opens to the main page displaying the most popular comics at the time. In the top right corner you can filter your selection by different categories such as Store, which is the main page, Motion Books, Print Books, Free, All Ages, which is for the most part appropriate for all ages, My Books, and Settings.

When you select a comic you would like to know more about, the app. will provide you with a brief overview of the book/series. It will list the different books in the series and the prices. Be careful of the 'play' button in the large picture of the book on this list. Instead of playing a preview it continues to purchase the entire series.

There is a website for the motion books as well as a motion book developer if you would like to publish your book to Madefire.
