By Tomoko Taniguchi. Princess Prince is both a charming fairy and an adventure story. Princess Prince is a fun, fantasy adventure set in the magical Kingdom of Gemstone, starring Laurie and Matthew, the Princess and Prince of the kingdom, and following them on a quest to find a mysterious, lost treasure. Like all Japanese shojo (women's and girls comics), it's not just a fun and romantic adventure, but also a story with fully-developed characters struggling with what it means to be a boy or to be a girl. Tomoko Taniguchi's style is at its liveliest and most engaging in this series, and she's now a regular and popular guest at US cons. Like all of Taniguchi's stories, this magical romance also offers strong characters and powerful messages, here combined with beautiful fantasy art. It's a must for all readers who want the best that shoujo (women's and girls) manga can provide - character-driven stories that relate to real personal and social issues. b&w, 32pgs. Cover price $2.95.
