A girl whose fortunes have plummeted from wealthy aristocrat to servant-girl. A magic hazel twig. A prince. A desperate escape from danger. This is not the story of a girl whose fairy godmother arranges her future for her. This is the story of Selena, who will take charge of her own destiny, and learn that her magic is not to be feared but celebrated.

I think of this as the first “modern” Tintin book. One that doesn't rely solely on slapstick for its humor, where Tintin isn't just a travel reporter who gets saved by either sheer luck or his dog, and where the characters and villains have a clearly developed motivation. Still, I can't wait for the Captain to finally join the cast.
