Overview

We are thrilled to invite you on a journey of courage, friendship, and rebellion--Another Castle: Grimoire! This volume gathers all the issues from the hit comic book series centered on the adventures of Princess Misty of Beldora, whose courageous spirit leads to her capture, and ultimately, to a heroic adventure that spans two kingdoms. Our tale begins when Princess Misty of Beldora, who longs for a more exciting life, gets more than she bargained for when she is captured by Lord Badlug, the ruler of the neighboring kingdom of Grimoire. He intends to marry her and conquer Beldora, leading the land into ruin and chaos. The people of Grimoire already suffer under his rule and desperately need a hero... luckily, Badlug has just kidnapped one! Together with the citizens of Grimoire and a certain bumbling prince, Misty must fight to protect her kingdom and free both realms from Badlug's tyrannical rule. Misty is determined not to be another damsel in distress; and with her new friends to protect, she'll discover just what it takes to be the hero of the story.

BOOKLIST -- Princess Misty is frustrated with her life of rules and parties and dresses, especially considering mounting threats from Lord Badlug of Grimoire, who's eager to kidnap her. But, as Misty says, Where is it written that a princess can't fight for her freedom? Despite protests from her father, Misty picks up a sword and fights back against Badlug and his minions. When she's eventually captured, she tries to escape and leave Grimoire behind forever, but she learns an important truth that changes her plans: The story doesn't end when you get what you want. Some of us have to live here. This fast-paced, funny adventure subverts classic princess stories in ways that are subtly relevant to contemporary issues. Wheeler's engaging story is well matched by Ganucheau's meticulous, detailed artwork, which is awash with beautiful, bright colors and characters of refreshingly diverse skin tones and body shapes. Perfect for fans of series like Ms. Marvel or Lumberjanes, this will be right at home next to any book about smart, spunky princesses triumphing over tyranny.
