I had the good fortune to pick up the standalone Legend of Bold Riley (MAY121226) anthology by Northwest Press at San Diego Comic Con some years ago. It's a love letter to tall tales, fairy stories, and epic fantasy adventure so brilliant that I could barely see straight for all the awesome. That's why I cannot begin to convey my excitement about this all new, serialized collection of Bold Riley stories from our friends at Northwest!
Bold Riley is restless princess of Prakkalore, but the royal family values wisdom, experience, and a valiant heart. Rather than smother their daughter with life at court, the king and queen send Riley out into the fantastic realm of her kingdom with a horse, a knife, and a good coat. Not a dainty princess in the slightest, Riley learns to fight monsters, to hold her liquor, to win hearts, to steal kisses, and to have compassion for her people. This new series promises a host of new escapades and quests for the best and most daring of women, Bold Riley!
