Description
REGARDING MY BEAUTY MY BEAST: Read this and discover the Beast you never heard about before, and a Beauty who is his true match, in this graphic novel based on the original French pagan fairy tale written before the Disney version, in fact before any other version, back in 1740.
William Richert has written a visual tale with 400 illustrations by the great American illustrator River Sauts, each in color, hand detailed.
The true pagan fairy tale centers on the story of a Warrior Queen who gives birth to a son before returning to war. The boy grows to a young Prince under the care of a Fairy Queen of the 9th Degree, named Rhonda, a girlhood friend of the French Queen.
The Prince grows to young manhood with his mother off to war, and the Fairy Queen falls in love with him and wants to marry him.
When the Prince refuses, saying Rhonda is too young and too old, he is changed in front of his own mother's eyes into a monstrous beast, and the Fairy Queen tells him that he will not return to his former self until somebody loves him for his inner self alone, not for looks or youth.
Thus the Beast waits in his castle for his Beauty, in this whole new telling of the ancient tale for a whole new audience.
