The long-awaited return to Castle Waiting!With its long-awaited second volume, Linda Medley’s witty and sublimely drawn fantasy eases into a relaxed comedy of manners as Lady Jain settles into her new life in Castle Waiting. Unexpected visitors result in the discovery and exploration of a secret passageway, not to mention an epic bowling tournament. A quest for ladies’ underpants, the identity of Pindar’s father, the education of Simon, Rackham and Chess arguing about the “manly arts,” and an escape-prone goat are just a few of the elements in this delightful new volume. The book also includes many flashbacks that deepen the stories behind the characters, including Jain’s earliest romantic entanglements and conflicts with her bratty older sisters, the horrific past of the enigmatic Dr. Fell, and more. 384 pages of black-and-white comics

3.5Enjoyed this one a lot more than the first, but the abrupt "ending" wasn't appreciated. Also there was a fairly big departure from the first volume in terms of visual quality. The panels were much larger here although rarely ever more detailed, so I'm a bit unsure as to why that change occurred? ...
