I liked the first one the best out of the two. The simple drawings coupled with the complex, honest story was very touching. I thought Persepolis was good.

It's is a super duper book. I'm also a big fan of Persepolis. I'm haunted by the panel where the young Iranian boys charge across the minefield.

Thank you! CASTLE is very near and dear to my heart because I not only based the setting on where my family used to live when I was a child, but I also put in references to all my favourite Romantic fairy tales.

I've looked at that series a couple times -- since you've read more than one of them, can I take that as an implicit recommendation? (Also, I've read all those Baloghs. Good binge!)

I can honestly say that Castle of the Wolf was a highlight last year and I have already thrust it upon several friends. If you are looking for great gothic romance, it is fabulous.

It's a truly unusual novel! I hope you’ve enjoyed Castle of the Wolf! :)
