Squire & Knight: Wayward Travelers | Scott Chantler

pick

A fun follow-up to the first book. In the afterword, the author explains that he didn't want to repeat the story of brains over brawn, so he decide to explore when someone intelligent gets a little too cocky. Great illustrations and a meaningful story.

I saw these graphic novels at Ren Faire, so I requested them from the library.

Bette I liked Squire and Knight. Just got the 2nd Squire from the library. 📚👍 2mo

I liked 'Letter for the King' a few years ago. Nice but not finding it engaging (whether that is due to the translation or the original writing I don't know). I do like the illustrations, which are by the author

humouress Part 3 chapter 7: with its maybe-fey woods and cryptic remarks by several characters I feel we‘re on the cusp of something. First we were looking for a friend, who still hasn‘t turned up, and now we‘re helping another friend find his way home, but he doesn‘t seem sure that he wants to go there. 3mo

humouress Finding the writing a bit rough (the original?/ the translation?); I keep getting snagged and it‘s slowing me down. ETA: I think the plotting is good but the vocabulary and maybe pacing are off. There are subtleties (the chess match) and tension - I had to put it down at the penultimate chapter. Better get back and see what happens… (edited) 3mo
