Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Young Randall dreams of adventures until one day he's sent off on a mission to discover the neighboring king's secret. When he returns, he's thrown in a dungeon and despairs until Princess Tilda - the power behind the throne - entices him to compete for her hand. Courage, determination - and Tilda's trust in him - toss him from one adventure to the next as he dives for a ring at the bottom of the ocean and searches for a Golden Apple from the Tree of Life. BEN NADLER's modern version in comics highlights the timeless truth at the heart of this Grimm Brothers' fairy tale in a way that is sure to delight and resonate with today's young readers.
