Linda Medley’s black and white series takes place in a medieval fantasyland in which human characters interact with fantasy characters, yet stories frequently involve historical elements. Clear, confident, excellent line art combine with topnotch fantasy storytelling; the focal storyline features a young woman looking for a place to have her baby—then meeting other characters and learning more about the people and places around her. Medley excels at depicting the unusual plot element of sheer friendliness.
