The Grave Robber's Apprentice

(3) 4-6 When evil Archduke Arnulf sets out to marry, then murder, twelve-year-old Angela Gabriela von Schwanenberg, the spunky young countess concocts first a death-ruse, and then a perilous journey to Peter the Hermit to foil him. Hans, a grave robber's apprentice, aids her and discovers his own secret past along the way. Stock adventures and stereotyped characters are refreshed and stylized in this vivid and compelling work.
