Review: The Courageous Princess
The Courageous Princess was part of my library’s core Graphic Novel collection. Though I hadn’t more than glanced through the title at the time, I had purchased it, because at the time it was one of the few female heroines in comics.

Of course, if you stumble upon Dragons Beware first, don’t worry about not having any back story; this is an entirely stand-alone story. But whichever book you pick up […]
