Review: Navigation design detracts from an excellent graphic novel

I was disappointed to see that when I double tap on a panel in the book, it does not enable me to move from panel to panel. Instead, when I tap on the right side of my Kindle Fire HDX 7" (same on 8.9"), the view moves among four quadrants of each page. It starts at upper left, then to upper right, lower left, and lower right. Sometimes this messes up the flow of the text and illustrations and you have to move back to see what's next in the story.By comparison, Watchmen uses the panel-by-panel navigation and is much easier to read on my HDX than Wool is.Maybe this can be fixed in future books in the series? I hope so. The illustrations look terrific, and it's a shame for the clumsy navigation to detract from the enjoyment of the book.
