Review

"[The Moon-King] features dreamy watercolor artwork that supports jaw-dropping plot twists and a cliff-hanger ending." –School Library Journal"Alice's soft outlining and a blended watercolor approach make the illustrations appear dreamlike and surreal, perfectly matching the tone of the piece, while his anime-style facial expressions and action sequences modernize the old-fashioned appearance of the machines and locales. A whimsical choice for high-fantasy lovers." ―Booklist

About the Author

Alex Alice is a French graphic novelist, working in France and sometimes the U.S. His works have been translated into more than fifteen languages.Born in 1974, he grew up in the south of France and had the chance to travel around Europe, where he developed a lifelong passion for the ruins and castles of the medieval and romantic ages. This experience influenced his art, from the grim setting of his esoteric thriller The Third Testament (co-written with Xavier Dorison and published by Titan Comics) to the primeval, mythic world found in Siegfried, an operatic re-telling of the northern saga of the great dragon slayer (published by Boom Entertainment). In Castle in the Stars, he draws on Jules Verne and nineteenth-century romanticism to create a watercolor world of adventure and wonder to enchant adults and younger readers alike.

Brought to you by OBS reviewer OmarContinues the story of Seraphin and his father as they journey into outer space and through the aether barrier, along them come Sophie and brother Hans, and King Ludwig. On their way to cross the Aether barrier (atmosphere) they learn that they are missing a crucial piece of device and end up flowing in space.As they try to find a way back home to Earth they come across a shiny light from the moon that damages them even more. They now have a small window of time to make the necessary repairs and get back home.The Castle in the Stars: The Moon-King has very beautiful artwork with a compelling story that captives the reader. The story is interesting and catches the reader’s attention with its mystery and fantasy tale of space travel different to what we have learned in our world. At the same time, the characters are easy to like, their innocence and bravery make them the best candidates for this travel into the stars.This book has stunning artwork that brings to life the story that is being narrated. Its watercolor technique suits the time setting in which the story takes places and was a great choice to interpret the landscapes of outer space and the moon.Most of the characters in this expedition have their own agenda and while trying to accomplish their goals they endanger the rest of the crew members and seem to believe they are correct. In my opinion, both the king Ludwig and Seraphin father will do anything to prove they are correct.While It’s easy to follow along with the story, I do recommend you read the first book in the series to understand better the characters. I’m also interested to see where the author will take the characters after how things ended in this book.If you are a fan of Alex Alice and his work, then I recommend you Castle in the Stars: The Moon-King. In this book, a family and a king follow a logbook into the stars and end up stranded on the moon.

This is the second book in the Castle in the Stars series. This is a decent book but I continue to find the watercolor-like illustration and small caption boxes to be a bit hard to follow. I like the story and the characters though. In this book our intrepid heroes end up in the aether on their airship when the worst happens and they crash on the moon. They quickly find out that they have been betrayed by more members of their party than they originally expected and are unsure of whether or not they will ever be able to make it back to Earth.I enjoy the adventure theme to this story. I also liked that there was a quick synopsis of what happened in the last volume right at the beginning of this one. At times the illustration can be hard to see and follow (some of the characters look alike and the pictures are really small).The story in this book is getting very political and I don’t enjoy that as much as the adventure the kids had in the first volume. Still, it was decently done.Overall I didn’t enjoy this volume as much as the first one. There were too many politics and I feel like the illustration was a bit hard to follow. I am unsure whether or not I will continue this series at this point. My 11 year old son also reads this series and he felt the same way; he said it was okay but not great.

The king of Bavaria is trapped in the aethership along with Archibald Dulac, his son Seraphin, the son's friend Sophie, and tagalong Hans. The ship has launched into the sky and is moving at a break-neck pace towards outer space. A key component of the engine is missing. The crew assumes the court spy who accidentally launched them took the component for his own country. The ship races beyond the atmosphere and soon they are headed to the moon. What will they find there?The book continues the "alternate science" from Book One. They crash-land on the moon but it turns out okay since there is a breathable atmosphere when the sun is up. Repairs to the ship and coming up with a new component are the top priority for everyone except the King, who explores the moonscape with unbridled interest.The action of the story picks up and the ending promises more story to come, though I feel like it may be dissatisfyingly slow in coming. Even so, the art is beautiful and the plot is compelling enough.Slightly recommended.

At the last moment, the King of Bavaria joined the trial of the aethership to escape the betrayal by his chamberlin to the Prussians. The engine regulator disappeared so the ship was launched into space and managed to crash land on the moon. The King went hunting for the castle of his dreams while the rest of the crew worked on repairing the ship. The King found his dream and set off on a journey farther out while the aethership returned to Earth. Once again, the artwork helps set the mood of the tale and returns the reader to the fantastic journeys reported by Jules Verne and his compatriots. I am eagerly awaiting the next installment in the series.
