A Witch's Printing Office, Volume 2: 05/13/21

A Witch's Printing Office, Volume 2 by Mochinchi and Yasuhiro Miyama continues the adventures of Mika and the unprecidented success of her Magiket. Each chapter includes a different story about an unusual visitor or some misadventure to set up.

My favorite involves a young noble woman who runs away from home to attend the market. She's extremely lucky that a ship diverted to her floating island home. After a fun and busy day, she discovers the reason for the diversion. It's a hilarious punchline of an awkward meeting.

Another fun one involves an elderly wizard who I swear is the lovechild of Rincewind and Twoflower. He loves to travel but is antisocial. He's also on the lam (sort of). Finally he's very powerful but his magic is a bit chaotic. Of course Mika doesn't know any of this and gets along swimmingly with him. He gets the vacation he needs and wants, and she gets some last minute help.

There's a third and fourth volume and I plan to read both.

Five stars
