4.0

tl;dr
Your standard story. Girl has magical necklace that keeps bad people from finding her. Magical necklace gets broken. Girl is found by bad people, also a guy who thinks he’s a hero but is really just a nuisance, and begins becoming the thing the bad people fear. Also there’s a cat.

Girl Genius always stuck with me, so when I found it in a bookstore, I had to buy it.
