cornerofmadness 's review for:
The Ancient Magus' Bride, Vol. 4
by Kore Yamazaki
The first third of this is Chise visiting Lindel, the mage and learning all about Elias's origins. It is very interesting and Elias is even less human than Chise thought. Also in this time, Lindel helps her make her first magical wand which goes better than she could have hoped.
The rest is more episodic again with Chise reintergrating into the household and dealing with all the strange creatures that visit Elias. It's interesting watching her learn to let people in (we learn more of her history too and her abandonment issues) while she teaches Elias about human emotions. We see things like insects that need shearing for self-warming wool, dragons and a host of other creatures.
If you like tons of action, this is probably not your jam. This is a slow deep pool. I like the characters and the art is lovely.
