Everything I hoped for and more. Gorgeous illustrations, impeccable storybook aesthetic, and full of classic Cardan

I can't believe this is the end. I need more content, Ughhh!
After so much anticipation and waiting, I feel suddenly empty after finishing this. The artwork is beautiful though, and it felt great to know more about our favourite (mine at least) "awful boy with the clever tongue". I could go on about how much I love Jurdan, and Holly for writing this masterpiece, but we know that already.
