Girl Genius: Agatha Heterodyne and the Guardian Muse
by Phil & Kaja Foglio
Graphic novel 10; First printing, May 2011
In this story, more and more things interfere with Agatha as she tries to get back to getting her castle repaired. It’s a wild roller-coaster ride! The book ends with a short, amusing Jägermonster story about a hat.


Girl Genius: Agatha Heterodyne and the Heirs of the Storm
by Phil and Kaja Foglio
Graphic novel 9; First printing, May 2010
While Agatha tries to gain full control of Castle Heterodyne, wacky escapades ensue.
I think all of the unique characters are fascinating and I found it quite difficult to put this one down while I was reading it.


Girl Genius: Agatha Heterodyne and the Chapel of Bones
by Phil and Kaja Foglio
Graphic novel 8; Second printing, May 2012
Agatha finally gains control of at least part of Castle Heterodyne. This story was quite the farce; very Vaudeville-like.
Favorite quote:
Technically they’re called: “Fun-sized mobile agony and death dispensers.”


Girl Genius: Agatha Heterodyne and the Voice of the Castle
Graphic novel 7; Second Printing, April 2011
Agatha arrives in Mechanicsburg, her family’s home town, and spends the entire story trying to find a way to get into the castle. The story just keeps getting funnier and wackier. I enjoyed the coffee maker escapade.
