Gretel, with Calabar in tow, comes face-to-face with Tituba, the witch who murdered Hansel and cursed Gretel. But Tituba has secret information up her sleeve, both about Samuel’s dark history and Gretel’s true purpose. Will Gretel be able to stop Tituba before she can exact her apocalyptic plan? And even if she can, after her world is destroyed by Tituba’s revelations, will she even care to save ours?
In this mischievous and utterly original debut, Hansel and Gretel walk out of their own story and into eight other classic Grimm-inspired tales. As readers follow the siblings through a forest brimming with menacing foes, they learn the true story behind (and beyond) the bread crumbs, edible houses, and outwitted witches. Fairy tales have never been more irreverent or subversive as Hansel and Gretel learn to take charge of their destinies and become the clever architects of their own happily ever after.
A graphic novel adaptation of the classic fairy tale of Hansel and Gretel in which two children, abandoned by their father and stepmother in the forest, are captured by a witch after nibbling on her house of candy and must be very tricky to escape.
Gretel has been taken hostage by the mysterious girl who has been tracking her. But Gretel will soon learn that she and her well-armed captor have more in common than she thought. Meanwhile, Samuel has come face-to-face with the Tituba, and their dark history together will be revealed.
Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Europa Sun's fifth issue is here! Every issue seems to have its own feel and slight theme, and this issue is no different. This issue is slightly more literary than usual, with articles on William Butler Yeats (Irish patriotic poet), Homer's Iliad, Victorian writing conventions, and the work of the Brothers Grimm. Additionally, this turned out to be quite the German issue! In addition to the Grimm Brothers, articles discuss the famous ancient Germanic tribal hero Arminius and his famous Battle of Teutoburg Forest, and the medieval German mystic, Hildegard of Bingen. In addition to the Battle of Teutoburg Forest, fans of military history will enjoy reading about the 100 Years' War and a wonderful discussion about the history of the firearm in the West. An image spread exploring the Georgian Cross as a chivalric symbol used by nobility in dueling rounds out this issue with a bit of a military history theme as well. As always, there is a variety of topics from Western cultural heritage explored, and includes a lovely poetry spread featuring many of our previous writers. The issue is richly illustrated in beautiful full color throughout.
