My Girl Genius Collection remains complete! I just discovered and filled out my Backerkit Survey for the last campaign.
I really dislike Kickstarter's website, it is confusing on it's own. But because it only covers one of the steps of making and a selling a product to a fan base, creators end up having to use multiple other services, which compounds the difficulty for their fans.
As an example, when I search for "Girl Genius" on the Kickstarter site they list the search results in seemingly random order. I would probably hate every order, except chronological, but random chaos is a bold choice.
I almost missed this last campaign for books 22 and 23. And the next campaign for books 24 and 25 is coming soon! I think I did miss the Kickstarter for the last novel, maybe a game or two? - Hard to tell...
I've bought a set of these for all of my siblings kids, and my wife's sisters kids, so to keep my, and all their, sets current I buy 12 books of each release.
A few times I've treated myself to some original art as well. 😃
I'm told that some of the kids are too young, and many of them don't read books (!!! 😲) - I persist anyway, Graphic novels might be a gateway drug to literacy? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ One can hope.
It's a fantastic series IMHO, although I'm a little sad that this whole thing with mechanics burg has drug on _forever_. Mechanicsburg the city, and the castle, was nearly the star of series, eclipsing even Agatha somewhat.
Now it feels like there are like 10+ characters all trying to be the main character, and I keep hoping that Kaja will make Phil relegate most of them back to being 1 dimensional background characters. Or maybe go full George RR Martin / Thanos and kill half of them off. -- No! Wait I jest, please don't do that... ok maybe a little.
We'll see!
