Castle Waiting vol. 2

Castle Waiting volume 2 by Linda Medley, 384 pages

This is a fun follow-up to the first Castle Waiting. Lady Jain is settling into life in the castle, some Hammerlings (mountain-mining dwarves) swing by to help out with castle renovations, and there's a wonderful bit of bowling fun. This is a really approachable graphic novel and I really enjoyed reading it.

That said, what the heck is up with that ending??? And where in the world is volume 3??? Linda Medley had better get stuff sorted out with her publisher, or whoever is holding this up, because really, that's no way to end a story. The way this ended, I seriously thought there were pages missing at the back of the book. It's that abrupt. But sadly, there's no more Castle Waiting in my (or anyone else's) immediate future. But should a third volume magically appear (like out of Lady Jain's excellent trunk), I'll happily read it.
