From #1 New York Times bestselling author Julia Quinn
comes this irresistible treat, a charming and jaunty graphic novel, based on
story snippets peppered throughout a number of her books. Originally mentioned
in It’s in His Kiss—one of the Bridgerton novels which inspired the smash
Netflix series Bridgerton—Miss Butterworth and the
Mad Baron is finally told here in its entirety for the first time.
A madcap romantic adventure, Miss Butterworth and
the Mad Baron has appeared in
several Julia Quinn novels and enthralled some of her most beloved characters.
Now this delicious tale of love and peril is available for everyone to enjoy in
this wonderfully unconventional graphic novel.
Born into a happy family that is tragically ravaged by smallpox, Miss Priscilla
Butterworth uses her wits to survive a series of outlandish trials. Cruelly
separated from her beloved mother and grandmother, the young girl is sent to
live with a callous aunt who forces her to work for her keep. Eventually, the
clever and tenderhearted Miss Butterworth makes her escape . . . a daring
journey into the unknown that unexpectedly leads her to the “mad” baron and a
lifetime of love.
Delightfully illustrated by Violet Charles, told in Julia Quinn’s playful
voice, Miss Butterworth and the Mad Baron is
a high-spirited nineteenth-century romp that will entertain and enchant modern readers.
