This is the first volume of Castle Waiting, collecting the various stories of Linda Medley's graphic series. Castle Waiting is a once-enchanted castle where all are welcome- and all have a tale to tell. This modern take on classic fairy tales is full of strong female characters, such as Lady Jain and her mysterious newborn, and Sister Patience and her story of faith and friendship, circus and cloister. There are also stories of loss, such as Henry the metalsmith, who has his broken heart mended with iron bands. It can be read by all ages, but is really best appreciated by adults. Great for any fairy-tale fans.
